Global Data Vault is a proud sponsor of Interop Net. Interop Net is the leading global business technology event, with the most comprehensive IT conference and expo available. The event brings business and technology leaders together to discuss the latest technologies and industry trends.
Considering the possibility of a tsunami in Hawaii yesterday, Brian Chee, Interop Net’s team lead for wireless technology, gave thought to data protection and posted this article which describes how Global Data Vault’s services allow Interop Net to maintain business operations, under any circumstance.
Global Data Vault’s software is installed onto Interop’s Virtual Machines (VM), which allow Interop to synchronize VM images across their Wide Area Network (WAN) connection, and that means Interop still has access to their servers, even when their Network Operations Center (NOC) is packed away in trucks.

On June 11, 2009, the World Health Organization (WHO) raised the worldwide pandemic alert level to Phase 6 due to the spread of the H1N1 virus. The virus, also known as Swine Flu, has rapidly established itself and will continue to persist in the coming months as the virus continues to move through susceptible populations.
The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) has released a guidance report which recommends actions that employers should take now to decrease the spread of seasonal flu and 2009 H1N1 flu in the workplace and to help maintain business continuity during the 2009-2010 flu season. The document states that employers who have developed pandemic plans should revise their plans in light of the current 2009 H1N1 influenza outbreak to take into account the extent and severity of disease in their community. CDC anticipates that more communities may be affected than were in the spring/summer 2009, and/or more severely affected reflecting wider transmission and possibly greater impact. Continue reading →
