WTS extends services to IBM customers

WTS, a provider of application hosting, managed disaster recovery, and collocation services for Oracle's JD Edwards applications, has expanded a new managed disaster recovery and business continuity service for IBM customers, reports TMCnet.

WTS business continuity disaster recovery services allow organisations to recover their critical business systems, with minimal interruption to the organisation and operations.

"Whether it's the failure of critical hardware or a catastrophic regional disaster, the impact from unplanned downtime is a financial risk most organisations don't have to take," says Richard Dolewski, CTO of WTS.

Layoffs and high-turnover periods can be chaotic for IT departments due to their propensity for creating orphaned data, but enterprises can safeguard against lost information, according to TechNewsWorld.

By instituting centralised control policies and deploying technologies designed to immediately and easily recover wayward data.

Employees are the lifeblood of any business, and the data they produce is critical to productivity.

Pitney Bowes Management Services, a subsidiary of Pitney Bowes, has added a stand-by recovery service to its business recovery and business continuity offerings, according to Trading Markets.

The company says its stand-by recovery service is designed for businesses with mail and print needs that are less complex than higher volume mailers.

It provides companies with standard recovery-level service during times of business interruption.
