SafeData Partners with Strategic Systems Expanding into the Southeastern U.S. |
 |
| Warwick, R.I. and Holly Springs, N.C. – February 5, 2007 – SafeData, LLC, a technology company focused on helping companies protect their data,
minimize downtime and recover and restore data quickly, today announced that it has formed a strategic partnership with Strategic Systems USA, a North Carolina-based
systems integrator specializing in high availability and disaster recovery solutions. The partnership will extend SafeData's market into the southeast region of the
United States. |
|
| "Strategic Systems has a strong base of IBM Midrange clients in the southeastern United States," said Peter Briggs, president of SafeData. "We have been focusing on the
Northeastern U.S. over the past few years. Through Strategic Systems' strong sales team and their expertise in business continuity and the System i5 platform, they are an
excellent business partner to help us extend our reach into a new geographic area." |
|
| "SafeData's subscription-based high availability and disaster recovery offerings are a natural evolution for our current business model," explained Tod Kisner, chief executive
officer at Strategic Systems. "With SafeData's managed services offerings, small and medium-sized businesses have an option to protect their data like larger organizations without
making a significant capital outlay and enabling them to focus on what they do best - not business continuity issues." |
|
| SafeData offers two primary solutions. Combining best-of-breed technologies from the industry's leading developers, SafeData/HA (high availability) is a cost-effective high availability
solution for an organization's most critical systems. Using industry-leading replication technologies, SafeData creates and maintains a mirror of its clients' systems in its data centers.
During either planned or unplanned downtime, SafeData/HA is a high availability service that provides a switchable "mirror" of a company's data and applications guaranteeing continuity in two
hours or less. |
|
| SafeData/DR (data recovery) is a cost-effective, subscription-based data protection service. Using leading-edge electronic vaulting technologies, SafeData/DR identifies and backs up only
incremental changes to data delivering access to data within hours. This approach is faster, more efficient and more cost-effective than traditional methods. To take it a step further, SafeData/DR
also performs a disk-to-disk restore of the data to a standby server at SafeData's two data centers, enabling clients to restore and recover their systems and data in 10 hours or less. |
