PlateSpin Consolidated Recovery Seminar

kpaddison — Mon, 11 May 2009 13:55:02 +0000


PlateSpin Consolidated Recovery Wednesday, May 20, 2009 8:30 am – 12 noon
Your business has a 76% chance of experiencing significant downtime or disaster. With the majority of your recovery budget being allocated to protect only your most critical applications, a large portion of your business-critical servers are left under-protected. With the risk of downtime so high, the need to deploy your disaster recovery solution is not a matter of if, but when. Moreover, in a challenging economy, the business risks associated with downtime—lost productivity, revenue opportunities and customer loyalty—are even greater. Three reasons to rethink your disaster recovery strategy: 1. Protect more servers for less -Make your recovery budget go further with consolidated disaster recovery. 2. Reduce recovery time from days to minutes -Rapidly recover from outages with a warm standby recovery environment 3. Test recovery plans to ensure you’re prepared -Easily test and validate your recovery plan without disrupting production systems. AGENDA 8:30 Continental Breakfast 9:00 Introductions 9:15 Consolidated Recovery 11:45 Drawing for a FREE* 2 GB iPod Shuffle and lunches served. Attend and be entered to win. FREE* NFR’s of Recon and Protect will also be available for participants. LOCATION Microsoft Technology Center 12012 Sunset Hills Rd.
