Peak 10 Ready for Active Hurricane Season.
2006-06-01, HostMan.biz Peak 10, the Southeast's leading data center operator and managed services provider, announced today a successful review of the company's emergency management plan. The review was designed to ensure that Peak 10 can provide its customers a secure facility and redundant infrastructure as well as weather and disaster recovery information before, during and after a hurricane or other natural disaster. The company also updated its Website to provide businesses information on affordable disaster recovery and business continuity solutions. Whether it's to protect critical data from hurricanes, cyber attacks or human error, organizations of every size and industry should have a disaster recovery plan in place. A disaster recovery and business continuity plan reduces vulnerability to unexpected events, minimizes downtime and its impact on the bottom line, reduces losses in critical data and employee productivity, and ensures compliance with industry and federal regulations. "With the increased number of hurricanes in the past two years, more organizations are realizing the importance of being prepared," said Jeff Biggs, vice president of operations and engineering for Peak 10. "We take our responsibility as a DR partner (or DR provider?) seriously and have tested our emergency plan in all data centers to ensure Peak 10 can maintain the security and availability of our customers' technology infrastructure, data and applications in the event of a disaster." Peak 10 tested its emergency management plan to make certain four key functions are available in case a disaster strikes: * The ability to continue to provide a secure facility. Each data center will be fully monitored and managed 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. * Ensure access to multiple Tier 1 Internet service providers from each Peak 10 data center and connectivity from facility-to-facility via Peak 10's private OC-n network. * 24 hours, 7 days a week data center availability. Since all of its facilities are outside mandatory evacuation areas, Peak 10's data centers will be fully staffed and able to handle customer requests and onsite needs. * Generator refueling processes have been reviewed and contingency plans made in the event of fuel shortages. Hurricane season on the Atlantic seaboard runs from June 1 to November 30 this year. In a recent U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) report, the organization forecasts 13 to 16 named storms for 2006. In the last season, there were 28 named storms in the Atlantic Basin, which includes Caribbean and the Gulf of Mexico. Of them, 15 became hurricanes, with seven being Category 3 or higher, far exceeding predictions. Peak 10 combines its network of seven data centers and portfolio of managed services with localized engineering and support to serve market-leading companies nationwide. The company specializes in disaster recovery and business continuity solutions that ensure availability, security and integrity of critical data and business applications 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The company owns and operates data centers in Louisville, Ky., Tampa and Jacksonville, Fla. and Raleigh and Charlotte, N.C. |
