Frontier Technology seamlessly delivers BSkyB’s critical Symantec upgrade.


British Sky Broadcasting Group (BSkyB) was in the process of upgrading their existing database environment. To support their upgrade, they further needed to change their version of Symantec’s NetBackup from 5.1 to 6.5.


Previously BSkyB have conducted upgrades internally but because of the criticality of this particular environment and the lack of NetBackup expertise in-house, BSkyB requested the services of a NetBackup consultant from Frontier to ensure the successful completion of this task.


Frontier Technology specialise in Symantec consultancy, we were recommended to BskyB by Symantec because of our excellent track record and consultants’ experience. Throughout the upgrade we provided assistance and support for BskyB and ensured that it was a seamless and hassle-free process.
