whitepaper Adopting Server Virtualization for Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery2009-11-17 CA XOsoft
  In today's competitive business environment, your IT infrastructure must accommodate rapidly changing business needs and unforeseen problems with minimal impact on day-to-day operations. But this level of flexibility, scalability, and high availability can be expensive and difficult to deploy and maintain, especially for small and midsize businesses. No matter what size your business is, in today's economic climate, having an IT infrastructure that includes a cost-effective business continuity (BC) and disaster recovery (DR) solution is a necessity. Downtime of mission-critical applications can cause irreparable harm to any-size business. Server virtualization is now a mainstream technology within small, midsize, and large organizations - not just for early adopters - and requires the same levels of protection as physical servers.

whitepaper Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery with CA Recovery Management and VMware Infrastructure2009-11-17 CA XOsoft
  The expansion of IT systems to support the growth of mission-critical business processes and services is fueling two parallel trends. One is the increase in the deployment of new applications and the provision of access to them and their information in ways that are economical, flexible, fast and well managed. The other is an increase in the implementation of business continuity (BC), disaster recovery (DR) and high availability (HA) initiatives aimed at safeguarding these applications. As such, many organizations are particularly challenged with simultaneously supporting and protecting their growing farms of missioncritical business applications with cost-effective BC and DR programs.

whitepaper Planning for Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery Using CA Recovery Management Solutions and VMware vSphere Cloud Operating Systems for High Availability2009-11-17 CA XOsoft
  Today, IT organizations face significant growth of mission-critical business processes and services, fueling two parallel trends. One is the increase in the deployment of new applications and the IT infrastructure required to support them, in ways that are economical, flexible, fast and well managed. The other is an increase in the implementation of business continuity (BC), disaster recovery (DR) and high availability (HA) initiatives aimed at safeguarding these applications and the data generated by their use. As such, many organizations are particularly challenged with simultaneously supporting and protecting their growing farms of mission-critical business applications and servers with cost-effective BC and DR programs.

whitepaper Sybase Raises the Bar on Database Replication2009-07-31 Sybase
  In the past year, Forrester interviewed 27 Sybase customers who are using Sybase Replication Server to investigate their implementations. Most customers found that Sybase met or exceeded their data movement requirements by offering a reliable, high-performance, flexible solution to support their mission-critical applications. Today, thousands of enterprises rely on Sybase replication technology to support high availability, disaster recovery, data integration, reporting, data distribution, and database migration requirements for Sybase and non-Sybase databases. Furthermore, the latest version, Sybase Replication Server 15.2, delivers improved performance, ease of use, and extended support for heterogeneous databases. Application designers and information management professionals should consider Sybase's replication technology a good alternative to the replication technology native to non- Sybase databases or to other leading database-independent enterprise data movement solutions such as GoldenGate Software Transactional Data Management (TDM), IBM InfoSphere Replication, and Quest Software SharePlex.

whitepaper Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery Reference Guide2009-07-22 CDW
  For any business organization to fulfill its mission, it is vitally important for data to be continually secure and available. In the United States, numerous events over the past decade have led to a heightened awareness of the need to be prepared for the worst.

Chief information officers, IT managers and technologists are now faced with the pressing concerns of growing demand for and reliance on access to information, along with ensuring business continuity during a disaster.

As companies are increasingly dependent upon rapid access to data (and subsequently less tolerant of failure), an increased focus must be given to Disaster Recovery (DR) and having a comprehensive Business Continuity (BC) plan in place. Firms that have a thought-out, detailed strategy for business continuity and disaster recovery are in a position to keep their systems running when problems occur.

whitepaper Security Vs. Disaster Recovery: Three Best Practices of Disaster Proof Hard Drive Technology2009-05-25 ioSafe
  In the world of product design, a common saying when considering a new product concept is "Good, fast and cheap - pick two." The majority of decisions are always a balance of high quality, features, time to market and cost of goods. Sacrifices are always made somewhere - one can't have it all. In the world of data protection, similar balances exist when implementing a comprehensive plan. Security, disaster recovery, ease of use, compliance and cost are often considered and require a balanced approach for any size company. Balancing all the aspects of data storage will sometimes involve heated negotiations between company divisions. Different company divisions will have conflicting goals and objectives - one can't have it all.
