Change the Game of Backup and Recovery: Diligent Offers Insights During SNW Event
Framingham, MA (PRWEB) October 18, 2005
Enterprise data centers now have the capability to protect more while storing less, thanks to next generation data factoring technologies. ProtecTIER?, powered by HyperFactor? enables customers to reduce required backup disk capacity by 25x?s — according to Neville Yates, CTO of Diligent Technologies. Neville will present ?Economically Change the Game of Backup and Recovery and Get Your Backup Environment under Control Operationally and Financially? at Storage Networking World, Fall 2005 ? a leading conference for IT Managers, Storage Architects, and Infrastructure Professionals produced twice yearly by IDG?s Computerworld (http://www.computerworld.com) in partnership with the Storage Networking Industry Association (SNIA).
Yates will address how enterprise data centers have begun to leverage disk as a primary backup and restore medium for its advantages in speed and reliability. Keeping tapes from being lost or stolen is another often cited benefit of disk-based backup solutions. However, some professionals still view disk as too expensive. Yates builds from this context to cover strategies which employ new technologies to enable IT Managers to meet recovery point and recovery time objectives with an extremely compelling TCO.
Yates? session at SNW will cover:
The role of tape in backup and recovery architecture?today and in the future
Next-generation disk-based backup and recovery options
Data factoring as applied to backup/recovery, archiving and HSM
How data factoring technology changes the economics of disk-based backup and recovery
?Even with disk coming onto the scene, there haven?t been any changes to basic backup practices and procedures,? explained Yates. ?Diligent has pioneered solutions that change the economics of implementing disk-based backup and restore. By eliminating a lot of the repetition in data sets that lead to a large and costly backup environment, Diligent?s ProtecTIER data protection platform reduces required storage capacity by 25X or more.?
Diligent?s ProtecTIER platform, powered by HyperFactor, a game-changing factoring technology, enables customers to protect more data while recording less of it, all without disrupting existing policies, practices and procedures in their data center. With ProtecTIER, you can acquire a disk-based data protection solution below the cost of an equivalent tape-based offering ? without compromising performance, capacity or data integrity.
Yates? presentation takes place at 2:10-2:55 p.m. on Tuesday, October 25, 2005 during the Data Protection track of the conference agenda.

Large Scale Game Console Repair
(PRWEB) March 22, 2004
Domain Logic has increased capacity to service 700 game consoles weekly. Providing technology support services and engineering for nine years, Domain Logic is a recent entrant in the game console repair industry.
Game consoles, like the omnipresent Playstation, Microsoft XBox, Nintendo GameCube and Sony Playstation 2 have typically been serviced by the systems’ own manufacturers at prices that would be near the replacement cost of the unit (typically $ 150).
Domain Logic began offering console repair services near the end of 2003 and has grown to be a large contender in the game console market.
They offer flat rate pricing on repairs and buy out inventories of unwanted or broken units. While individuals may want to sell a broken Playstation or Xbox, large corporate entities see this as a way to refurbish or liquidate obsolete and broken inventories of PS2, Xbox and gamecubes.
Announcing Resuscitation for Your Dying Video Game Systems
Morris Plains, NJ (PRWEB) January 21, 2008
The booming industry of video game entertainment has recently reached record sales. With the PS3, Xbox360 and Wii consoles each believing they define the future of gaming, gamers are easily able to find a system that perfectly suits their gaming tastes. These new, increasingly fragile consoles require specialized tools and equipment to be properly disassembled and treated. Laymen attempting to patch up their own consoles without the proper tools and know-how can result in a number of disastrous possibilities. Just as an intern cannot perform a triple bypass, the same logic holds true when applied to video game repair.
One company has emerged to offer speedy solace to gamers whose failing systems are causing them undue stress. Acting as veritable “combat medics” of console gaming, innovative New Jersey-based VideoGame911.com is allowing gamers to send in their consoles for 24-hour repair services. This service comes at a time when popular systems like the Xbox 360 increasingly produce what gamers describe as the “Red Ring of Death,” and Wii consoles are routinely being force-fed miscellaneous items into the mouths of their DVD drives–requiring technological tracheotomies and various other emergency procedures. This video game hospital has recently expanded its facility to encompass repair for the Xbox360, PS3, PSP, Wii, DS Lite, as well as all of their predecessors.
VideoGame911.com is so confident in their ability to resuscitate game systems, they’re willing to offer gamers newly refurbished systems in exchange for used and non-functioning ones. This allows customers to receive a console under warranty for less than the cost of a new one. VideoGame911.com is a subsidiary of electronics and computer retailer Anthony Edward Unlimited, LLC, and they are staffed only by knowledgeable veterans who have seen every type of wounded system come through their operating room. “Our only difficulty at this point,” says Operations Manager Max, “seems to be how to elevate our name above the corporations that create the systems.” But because they can offer repairs for less than the consoles’ creator companies, warranty their sales, and work to protect personal hard drive save data, it seems they are headed for a bright and busy future. A likely forecast for VideoGame911.com is that they will receive no shortage of emergency calls.
VideoGame911.com was founded in 1996 and has been generating increased sales each year. They are proud to be the only online video game repair service that is an accredited member of the Better Business Bureau.
