German to English: Instructions Management Assessment Center General field: Bus/Financial Detailed field: Management
Source text - German Sie sind Leiter/in des Geschäftsbereiches Schaltgetriebe innerhalb der Systemax GmbH, die insgesamt 9 Geschäftsbereiche hat. Der Geschäftsbereich Schaltgetriebe umfasst die Ei-genentwicklung und -fertigung elektronischer, mechanischer und elektrohydraulischer Kom-ponenten (A, B, C).
Der Geschäftsbereich hat insgesamt 2.000 Mitarbeiter, davon sind 1.300 Mitarbeiter für die Komponente C zuständig (200 in der Entwicklung und 1.100 in der Fertigung). Der Umsatz Ihres Geschäftsbereiches macht 15% des Gesamtumsatzes des Unternehmens aus. Insge-samt sind 21.000 Mitarbeiter bei der Systemax GmbH beschäftigt.
Am Markt kam es in den letzten 2 Jahren zu einem Preisverfall von 30%. Die Kostenredukti-on ist unter anderem auf Wettbewerber in der Fertigung in Osteuropa zurückzuführen. Der Geschäftsbereich verzeichnet aufgrund dieser enorm kritischen Kostensituation bei Kompo-nente C rote Zahlen. Die Komponenten A und B hingegen sind gemäß eines Benchmarkings wettbewerbsfähig.
Translation - English You are the manager of the “transmission” division, one of 9 divisions, within Systemax Company Ltd. The “transmission” division incorporates in-house development and –production of electrical, mechanical and electro-hydraulic components (A,B,C).
The division has 2,000 employees altogether, 1,300 of the employees are in charge of component C (200 in development and 1,100 in production). Sales revenue of your operating division is 15% of the total sales revenue of the company. Systemax company Ltd. employs 21,000 people altogether.
The market has experienced a price erosion of 30% within the last 2 years. The cost reduction can be attributed to the competition in production in Eastern Europe. Due to this tremendously critical cost situation for component C, the division operates in the red. According to a benchmark, Components A and B are still competitive, however.

Source text - English Backup and Recovery
Key Points:
• Disk-to-Disk Backup: point-in-time backup copies in native format.
• Faster Backup: Reduce backup times from hours or days to minutes.
• Smaller Backup Footprint: Reduce disk capacity requirements by up to 90%.
• Reduced Tape Usage: Store months or years of backups on disk.
• Fast Recovery: Native format enables end-user “browse and restore”.
Efficiency and performance to meet every need
As data levels grow and backup windows shrink, traditional tape-based backup can’t keep pace. To get ahead of business requirements, you need a solution that boosts performance while controlling costs. We can help.
NetApp replicates Snapshot copies to create full point-in-time backup copies on disk. After the first full backup, only new or changed blocks are transferred and stored. This minimizes data transfer over the wire and can reduce disk capacity requirements by 90%. It also enables you to store months even years of backups on disk to reduce or eliminate tape requirements.
NetApp backups can finish in minutes instead of hours or days. And they can achieve 100% success rates. Analyst firm Oliver Wyman has shown that these benefits can combine to reduce overall backup costs up to 63% over traditional tape environments. NetApp Open Systems SnapVault and V-Series open storage controllers extend coverage to open system servers and 3rd party storage.
Translation - German Backup und Wiederherstellung
Hauptmerkmale:
• Disk-zu-Disk-Backup: Kopien des Zeitpunkt-Backups im nativen Format.
• Schnellerer Backup: verringert die Dauer von Backups von Tagen zu Stunden oder Minuten.
• Geringerer Platzbedarf für den Backup: verringert die Anforderungen an die Speicherplatzbedarf um bis zu 90%.
• Geringere Bandnutzung: speichern von Monaten oder Jahren an Backups auf einem Datenträger.
• Schnellere Wiederherstellung: das native Format erlaubt dem Endnutzer „browse and restore“
Effizienz und Leistung die keine Wünsche offen lässt
Wenn Datenebenen ansteigen und sich die Zeitintervalle für die Sicherungen verringern, können traditionelle, auf Magnetband basierende Datensicherungen, nicht Schritt halten. Um den Geschäftsanforderungen gerecht zu werden, wird eine Lösung benötigt, die die Leistung erhöht und gleichzeitig die Kosten unter Kontrolle hält. Hierbei können wir Ihnen helfen.
NetApp repliziert Snap Shots zur Erstellung kompletter Zeitpunkt-Backupkopien auf dem Datenträger. Nach der ersten Komplettsicherung, werden lediglich neue oder veränderte Blöcke übermittelt oder gespeichert. So minimiert man die kabelgebundene Datenübermittlung und kann die Anforderungen an die Datenträgerkapazität um 90% reduzieren. Es erlaubt eine Speicherung der Datensicherung auf Datenträgern von Monaten oder sogar Jahren, um Anforderungen an Bänder zu reduzieren oder sogar zu eliminieren.
NetApp Backups sind bereits nach wenigen Minuten, anstatt der üblichen Stunden, erledigt. Sie weisen eine bis zu 100%-tige Erfolgsrate auf. Das Ergebnis einer Analyse des Beratungsunternehmen Oliver Wyman zeigt, dass diese Vorzüge zu einer Reduzierung der Backupkosten von insgesamt 63%, gegenüber traditionellen Bandumgebungen, führen können.
