[http://www.continuitysoftware.com/solutions/disaster_recovery_testing ] and business
continuity monitoring and management solutions [http://www.continuitysoftware.com ], today

engineered in response to direct, real-world customer feedback, the RecoverGuard v6.0 new

    Specifically, RecoverGuard v6.0 has added:

   
    - Distributed Collectors - Users can now setup multiple remote distributed
      data collectors across multiple geographies that are managed centrally by a single
      RecoverGuard server. This new feature enhances RecoverGuard's ease of use, increases
      scalability to tens of thousands of servers, and improves the security of data
      collection by eliminating the need to share information across multiple domains, as
      well as enables automatic load balancing and seamless failover.
    - IntegrationOptions - Continuity Software has opened-up large portions of its
      RecoverGuard Configuration Management Database (CMDB) engine which allows for
      increased flexibility and easier integration into existing processes, a much deeper
      understanding of an IT environment's storage and availability, as well as permits
      integration with additional external reporting tools, consoles, portals and other
      systems. Ticket management system integration has also been enhanced for easy
      integration with all major enterprise ticket management systems, with simple
      configuration via the UI.
    - Host Configuration Comparison Module - Enables users to baseline their server
      environment, analyze and compare arbitrary groups of servers in order to understand
      which servers have deviations from the group, view side-by-side graphical comparisons
      for an even deeper understanding of the environment, and customize host configuration
      reporting for more effective and efficient management.
    - Expansion Packs and Custom Signatures - Users can now specify the data to
      collect (e.g., file existence, metadata, content, registry value, command output,
      etc...), specify custom comparison criteria, easily share custom signatures, and
      customize the output reporting this information.
    - Coverage and Support - IBM PowerVM (VIO server), IBM SAN Volume Controller
      (SVM), IBM PowerHA, and NetApp ZAPI have been added to the extensive array of servers,
      storage, and virtualization platforms supported by RecoverGuard (including EMC, HDS,
      NetApp, IBM, HP, VMware, Oracle, Microsoft, and others).

    "One need look no further than Amazon Web Services (AWS) recent outage and
interruption in customer service to know that disasters happen," said Deni Connor
[http://www.ssg-now.com/who-we-are ], Founding Analyst, Storage Strategies NOW
[http://www.ssg-now.com ] (SSG-NOW). "The ability to proactively identify potential
weaknesses in your high availability and disaster recovery infrastructure in order to
eradicate the issues before they negatively impact your business is critical. Not only can
such outages negatively impact your business - after all, your nearest competitor is
usually just a click away - a loss of service and/or data can also have dire regulatory
compliance consequences. Clearly, a solution such as Continuity Software's RecoverGuard is
a 'must have' in today's information-age economy."

    "RecoverGuard is the only tool on the market today that is able to detect complex
situations and analyze their impact on such a level of granularity, in order to provide an
unprecedented level of risk detection, so that the risks can be eliminated long before
business impact," said Doron Pinhas, Chief Technology Officer (CTO), Continuity Software
[http://www.continuitysoftware.com ]. "Our customers can sleep soundly knowing that should
a disaster occur, their data and business applications will remain protected and highly
available."
