CeBIT, Australia’s largest IT show, will showcase Double-Take® software as customers continue to support the event as a platform for demonstrating the benefits of Double-Take® software, distributed throughout Australia and New Zealand by Business Continuity Asia Pacific (BCAP).
A feature of the Double-Take showcase this year – the fifth year of BCAP’s continued support – will be the shift to cloud centric disaster recovery and online backup.
CeBIT 2010, expected to attract 35,000 visitors, will focus on enterprise cloud computing as a driver to increase productivity. Other key IT issues focused at CeBIT will include business transformation, e-health and e-government – areas that Double-Take and BCAP have earmarked for growth in disaster recovery and efficient backup.
Viktor Babkov, founder and managing director of BCAP, said CeBIT is expected to feature 440 exhibitors and will attract a minimum 1,200 visitors to the specialist conference program, which underpinned it strength as Australia’s key IT show.
A feature of this year’s Double-Take Software attendance at CeBIT will be a 10-15 minute presentation delivered three times per day highlighting how to leverage cloud technologies to economically cost and protect data and servers in real-time. The presentation will also detail how best to use bandwidth effectively by leveraging byte level replication and optimisation; minimise costs by leveraging turn-key technologies without impacting on operations; and provide an in-depth view of leading market technologies from Double-Take® Flex software and Replify.
The presentation: Cloud DR - An Optimised Approach to Workload Mobility, Availability and Real-time backup could change the way businesses consider their DR investment.
According to Viktor Babkov, virtualisation and cloud computing is changing the mind-set of organisations.
“It is rapidly shaping a modern definition of high availability and disaster recovery in multi-subscribed resources on demand model. Disaster recovery vendors have allowed for new methods of protection and recovery of critical workloads,” he said.
“However, Australia and New Zealand are businesses still faced the challenge of remote availability, bandwidth, and platform dependency. They also face issues such as having the capabilities to shifting workloads effectively for distribution and balance of resources, and facilitate ease in operational recoverability.”
Viktor Babkov will address the technical considerations of providing disaster recovery of physical and virtual servers using traditional protection solutions as well as newer solutions that combine aspects of real-time data replication and full-server recovery. He will also cover options for x2x migration of workloads in real-time internally or externally of the cloud: effective, affordable DR and optimisation solutions tailored to meet exact needs.
