We deployed Guardium ourselves because we know the website.

The solution was implemented through an integrator team.

Implementing IBM Security Guardium Data Protection takes up to ten days, but the customization and the customer requirement span from one month to six months.

You need to install the product. It's a virtual appliance or a hardware appliance depending on the implementation. When it's set up, the agent must be deployed. Then you have to set the policy. The policy relies on the outcome that the customer wants in the report regarding what has been done with the database and what has been changed.

We contracted with the company. It was one of the smoothest implementations we ever had. We started and did the kickoff. After two months, they sent us the closure, acceptance server, and invoices.

We engage a consult to deploy the solution because it is not only installing the solution but also doing a report. 

The installation requires the involvement of a DBA, but it depends on the number of databases.

My company provides implementation services to customers. 

We had one person from the vendor come and help us deploy the solution.

We definitely needed more assistance and have tried to get the help of technical support for some integration issues, however, the response hasn't been fast enough.

We had help from IBM with deployment.

Throught the vendor team. These guys were very technical and helped me to understand each steps during the POC

We implement the process in-house.

we are implementing In-house with help of documents

I was able to complete the installation myself.

We implemented the most recent upgrade in-house.

We had the assistance of a system integrator.

Because we are a distributor, we work between the partner and the vendor. When it comes to implementation, we can either assist the partner or work with the customer directly, based on what the customer wants.

Our Guardian expert is dedicated to that product, and will either visit the customer to perform the implementation himself, or he will align with a partner and they will go together. Most of the implementations are handled by ourselves.

We have five people that do the implementation and maintenance of the solution.

We implement and deploy this solution for our clients. People from the client's side are also required. We have the Guardium Administrator, who is usually the project lead. The client will have database administrators, network administrators, IT staff to set up the appliance, and somebody from information security.
