CtrlS Brings DR On Demand, A First-of-its-kind Solution In India

Online, November 30, 2010 (Newswire.com) - CtrlS, the leading data center solution provider, today announced the launch of an innovative, first-of-its-kind solution in India: Disaster Recovery on Demand. CtrlS's 'DR on Demand framework' is built to align to enterprises'- large and medium- DR strategy by offering a robust Disaster recovery solution at a cost that suits their budget. CtrlS is using "scalable, ready to deploy private cloud architecture" for this framework. With this solution, CtrlS now supports the full LAMP and Windows Stack for on demand disaster recovery services.

Despite various research findings pointing out the importance of a DR solution, and the fact that organizations without a DR plan fail to recoup without it when disaster strikes, many companies do not implement a DR solution. Although this puts them in serious risk, organizations try to put it away shying away from the costs associated with DR, especially as there is no immediate ROI.

The DR on Demand framework is a pioneering concept that will change the way enterprises look at DR. DR on Demand now ensures that you have almost the same benefits as that of a complete DR site, at a fraction of the cost. This offering extends the following benefits:
• Zero Capex
• Organizations can get customized DR plans based on their requirements and pay only when they use the DR solution
• Customer gets the best DR solution from a data center with BS 25999 certification
• And, importantly, organizations can save up to 40% of the costs associated.

In a traditional approach to DR, companies invest in all hardware/software resources at DR site upfront as it's not possible to arrange these in a few hours in the event of a disaster. Now, CtrlS guarantees stocks for most of these resources and makes them available in the event of a disaster through this new approach (CtrlS DR on Demand Framework). So the organization can store the data in CtrlS evaults and be able to make the DR site up and running in a few hours! This makes it an offering that towers over other DR offerings in the market in terms of accessibility and cost. CtrlS aims to reach out to the large and medium-sized enterprises with this offering.

According to Mr.Sridhar, CMD, CtrlS Datacenters, "DR on Demand is a revolutionary concept and a solution which will impact the technology landscape positively. I am confident and excited that DR on Demand will be the answer to Large and Medium Enterprises who are looking for a robust, yet, cost effective solution that will help them spring back in the event of disaster".
