TierPoint has been selected by GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) to support the company’s global data consolidation and protection initiatives.
GSK is a research-based pharmaceutical and healthcare company. As part of its overall strategy to increase growth, reduce risk and improve long-term financial performance, a GSK team was tasked with consolidating a large portion of the company’s global hardware footprint and moving it offsite to a hardened, Tier III data center facility. After comprehensive assessments and an extensive audit of TierPoint systems and processes, GSK’s engineering team determined that TierPoint exceeded the strict infrastructure requirements initially set forth, resulting in the decision to relocate GSK’s networking computing unit to a TierPoint facility.
