To implement DR solutions in multiple data centers
This is a Press Release edited by StorageNewsletter.com on May 8, 2009 at 3:31 pmPeak 10, Inc., a data center operator and managed services provider, announced the enhancement of its managed services portfolio with the addition of a new virtualized service. VirtualDR leverages Peak 10’s virtualization services so that customers can implement reliable, cost-effective disaster recovery solutions in multiple data centers.
Peak 10’s VirtualDR product offers companies a software-based approach to replication.

“VirtualDR is another example of how Peak 10 continues to develop its robust IT solutions by leveraging the latest technologies available to meet the need for more cost-effective disaster recovery solutions,” said Monty Blight, vice president of managed services for Peak 10. “With the increased scrutiny on capital expenditures and executives increasing their focus on the bottom line, companies seeking to enhance their business continuity practices can now do more with less costs using Peak 10’s VirtualDR.”
Peak 10’s mature and robust virtualized services platform is the driver behind Peak 10’s new and enhanced offerings. Its growing number of enterprise-class data centers within nine markets makes it an attractive and convenient partner for companies seeking to geographically disperse and secure their data. Peak 10 possesses a seasoned team of virtualization experts who stay informed of the evolving technology, enhancing Peak 10’s delivery of cost-saving solutions to its customers.
“VirtualDR allows customers to leverage Peak 10’s renowned geographic diversity and customizable managed services portfolio,” said Brett Impens, virtualized services manager for Peak 10. “We have been actively testing this service internally as well as with Peak 10 customers and are extremely pleased with the results.”
