  “With its third appearance at the IT Press Tour, we would like to emphasize the increasing imperative for businesses to safeguard their data against severe losses.

In light of these findings, we would like to underscore the crucial importance of DR, HA and fault-tolerant systems in ensuring business continuity and data resilience for mission-critical workflows.”
