PlateSpin Unveils Break-Through Disaster Recovery Alternative Based on Infrastructure VirtualizationNovember 7, 2006; 05:42 AM “Data centers have historically allocated the lion’s share of the disaster recovery budget to only the most critical server assets, leaving hundreds of servers under-protected,” said Stephen Pollack, PlateSpin founder and CEO. “More than 2000 PlateSpin customers now have an affordable disaster recovery alternative that provides RTO and RPO that approaches high-end clustering schemes at a fraction of the cost.” "In a Forrester Survey, respondents stated that 23% were already using server virtualization to assist in some way with business continuity and disaster recovery, and 19% thought it was very suitable for doing so," writes Galen Schreck and Frank E. Gillett in the June 2006 report entitled Pragmatic Approaches To Server Virtualization. "Other users we've spoken to like the idea that they don't have to have identical hardware and server counts at the backup site, reducing the need for idle duplicate hardware." About PowerConvert and PowerRecon PlateSpin PowerConvert is a software solution that streams servers between physical hardware, blade infrastructures, virtual machines and image archives over the network. PlateSpin PowerRecon is agentless software that measures, analyses and determines the optimal fit between server resource supply and workload demand. Together, PowerConvert and PowerRecon form the world’s first and only end-to-end continuous server consolidation and disaster recovery solutions leveraging virtualization technologies.
