Peak optimization across the globe
“As a global email services provider handling over 10 billion email messages per month, in order to stay ahead of our competition, our operations and network teams monitor every aspect of our hosted service at the millisecond level,” says Mail2World Executive Vice President Youssef Abed. “As we continuously track and analyze how people use email and the usage patterns, our research indicates that users can tell the difference when there is 100th millisecond of an additional latency.

Optimum data utilization
“We know from our experience over the last 10 years that people usually access their email within a two (2) week window. Once the email goes over 2 weeks they almost never access it unless they’re searching for data,” says Mail2World Director of Technology Operations Kamil Asfour. “By implementing the Dell Compellent solution, we place the data on the fastest part of the disk and as the data becomes older, it automatically moves the data to the slower part of the disk,” Kamil further explains. “As we Implement storage intelligence into the management of our global data strategy, we are able to enhance our current technology and ensure that we’re always running at optimal performance.”
