CloudReplica Extends Its Cloud Leadership With Virtual-Move for Customers Requiring Data Protection and Access During Relocation
CloudReplica, the leading provider of Business Continuity as-a-Service, announced a new service that protects or runs a customer’s server during an office relocation. Many customers are left to worry about how to protect their data if an accident occurs. Even if there isn’t an accident, customers may encounter a challenge at the destination like inadequate power, no network access, or structural challenges that prevents reinstallation of servers.
In an article for Entrepreneur.com magazine, relocation expert Luigi Salvaneschi suggests "…an entrepreneur must figure in the cost of business interruption. Almost inevitably, a business’s productivity will be reduced for a period of days or even weeks after a move."
"Our business has always been about shattering those types of common beliefs and questioning the status quo," says Rich Bruklis, Vice President of Marketing at CloudReplica. "This is the 21st Century. Your data and servers should be available no matter what is going on — disaster, failure, or relocation. Our new Virtual-Move service does exactly that — allows you to run your applications even when your servers are riding down the highway in the back of a moving truck."

Axway (nyse euronext:AXW.PA), the Business Interaction Networks company, today details the steps IT departments must take to ensure seamless cloud adoption. Cloud computing continues to gain acceptance within the enterprise segment and in turn, software vendors are working in order to meet the need. Specifically enterprise IT has addressed the challenges concerning security, integration with internal applications, and performance and reliability relating to the cloud. With the combination of maturing platforms, generational and cultural shifts, and compelling economics, cloud-based solutions become the undeniable choice for nearly all future non-core technology purchases. Once adopted, the cloud is inherently scalable and can be online within hours, designed specifically on the organizational needs.
One of the more frustrating aspects of being a solution provider is the number of channel programs you have to participate in, even when there are two or more vendors that are selling something that they are mutually dependent upon to deliver. With the rise of cloud computing that’s becoming a whole lot more common because most cloud services generally have to integrate with something that is already running on premise.
