Intel and InMage Deliver BC and Data Protection

InMage Systems and Intel Corporation have collaborated to deliver Intel Server Boards and Systems with business continuity and data protection to Intel customers and partners.

InMage is embedding its recovery technologies into the Intel Server Continuity Suite, announced at the Intel Solution Summit.

The Intel Server Continuity Suite enables customers to manage server hardware, storage and backup from anytime and anywhere, with simplicity. This simplicity and level of integration was achieved through a multi-year collaboration between the companies. It builds upon InMage’s patented data protection engine, which has been trusted by enterprise customers. The software will be integrated with Intel Server Boards and Systems, extending data protection features to hundreds of thousands of servers a year.

"We are pleased to offer the benefits of InMage’s recovery software within the Intel Server Continuity Suite," said David Brown, general manager of Intel’s Enterprise Platforms and Services Division. "This is a very strategic offering for Intel, as it greatly simplifies the management of numerous data-driven IT functions, especially for the SMB market. InMage is playing a key role in helping us deliver the kind of data protection and recovery functionality that today’s small to medium-sized businesses require."

The Intel Server Continuity Suite is integrated with features such as predictive hardware failure to provide proactive and comprehensive data protection. Utilizing CDP technology developed by InMage, it backs up data in real time and offers almost immediate recovery time and recovery point objectives while eliminating backup windows. With the unified virtual presence GUI, users have one interface to learn and run, and one place to set up alerting and schedule tasks. Other key features include application-consistent recovery points and single screen storage management.

"By extending leading-edge data protection and recovery capabilities across their server products line, our collaboration with Intel for their Server Continuity Suite resulted in a versatile solution based on the ease of use and simplicity for tens of thousands of Intel customers. Their customers will benefit from continuous disk backup and disaster recovery, at a very affordable cost, in Intel server-powered physical and virtual environments," said Kumar Malavalli, CEO of InMage.
