Cost-Effective Disaster Recovery with PlateSpin PowerConvert

Stringent HIPAA regulations require the development and implementation of contingency and disaster recovery planning. PlateSpin PowerConvert automates the disaster recovery requirement for HIPAA security implementation by providing recovery to physical or virtual systems by replicating the data, applications and operating systems on a server and streaming it periodically to an asymmetric physical or virtual machine. In case of primary outage (planned or unplanned), the standby system can be made to take over workload. PowerConvert can also be used to capture a server and convert it to a hardware-independent or third-party image. This image can then be redeployed to any physical server or virtual machine regardless of the hardware configuration, providing fast and reliable recovery without having an exact replica infrastructure as the recovery environment.
