SafeData DR Supports AIX

SafeData, LLC, a technology company focused on helping companies protect their data, minimize downtime and recover and restore data quickly, announced that its SafeData/DR (data recovery) service now supports IBM’s AIX operating system. This announcement further extends the company’s support for multiple operating environments.

“By implementing new IBM blade technology we are now offering full AIX recovery services,” explained Peter Briggs, president of SafeData. “SafeData/DR leverages industry-leading online backup software and combines recovery to our virtual server environment. We started originally supporting the IBM iSeries environment, and then developed a Windows recovery solution using VMware. Now, with the latest IBM blade technology, we can recover data and systems for the AIX platform as well. With significant experience in supporting other operating systems, this is a huge market opportunity for us to help us extend our footprint to yet another platform.”

SafeData/DR’s Recovery Service provides full restoration capabilities for clients in just hours. SafeData has a large inventory of multi-platform servers configured directly to its vaults via high speed LAN connections. The customer has VPN connectively to their data until their systems are restored. The company’s Recovery Service also offers an option for bi-directional connectivity and communication that takes the guesswork out of user access to the restored system.
