AIS Phoenix DR Vault Starts at $299/Mo

AIS (American Internet Services), provider of enterprise data center, cloud and connectivity services, announced its Phoenix DR Vault, which is designed to accelerate the implementation of IT DR plans while overcoming cost hurdles.

For a limited time, any new or existing client that signs up for one year of AIS Phoenix DR Service will receive 1TB of NetApp, Inc.‘s  storage at no charge for one year (a $1,200 value).

AIS DR Services, which start at $299 per month,
are available in configurations that may be customized
to fit a business’ DR and BC objectives:

• Virtual DR is an enterprise, VMware-based cloud infrastructure service (AIS BusinessCloud1) with private Layer 2 connectivity between Phoenix, San Diego, and Los Angeles
• Hybrid DR is a combination of physical co-location (in the AIS Van Buren Data Center located in Phoenix, Arizona) and AIS Virtual DR above
• Turnkey DR is a managed, tailored replication service in which the AIS ProServices team will take care of everything on the client’s behalf, including analysis, planning, configuration, replication, monitoring, and reporting

"Natural disasters like hurricanes, earthquakes, and tornadoes, and man-made mayhem such as malware or even simple human error, are the types of events that can have devastating consequences for businesses that are reliant on mission-critical data and applications," said Tim Caulfield, CEO at AIS. "With the one-year anniversary of the massive power outage that knocked out a large portion of Southern California upon us, we felt now was a great time to raise awareness of the need for DR planning and show how quickly and affordably it can be implemented in one of the most stable geographies available – Phoenix, AZ."
