Power Resilience Survey Reveals Tighter Timelines, Needed Tech


Written by Phil on January 6, 2010 in Business Continuity.

Vision Solutions  released its second annual State of Resilience report, which is a detailed overview of disaster recovery expectations, technologies, and the overall state of resilience among IBM Power Systems users.

The report is based on a year-long study including survey data from more than 4,000 technical professionals and executives involved with the management and protection of IBM i (i5/OS) and AIX environments on IBM Power Systems.

“This report clearly demonstrates the urgency for companies of all sizes to ensure they have an effective data protection and business continuity plan in place,” notes Edward Vesely, Vision Solutions’ senior vice president of marketing. “Such strategy undoubtedly involves the right combination of high availability, systems management and disaster recovery solutions; however, many firms still lack the appropriate technologies to meet their overall objectives.”

According to Vesely, the report explains how a range of business resiliency and optimization technologies benefit businesses of all sizes — and this year, by the way, Vision expanded its data collection to include company size. While the results showed that, not surprisingly, larger organizations favored faster recovery time objectives in the event of a disaster or failure, the business requirements between large and small organizations wasn’t nearly as wide as you might expect.
