SAN DIEGO, CA--(Marketwire - Sep 10, 2012) - AIS (American Internet Services), a leading provider of enterprise-class data center, cloud and connectivity services, today announced its AIS Phoenix "DR Vault" special, which is designed to accelerate the implementation of information technology (IT) disaster recovery plans while overcoming cost hurdles. For a limited time, any new or existing client that signs up for one year of AIS Phoenix Disaster Recovery (DR) Service will receive one terabyte (1 TB) of premium NetApp® storage at no charge for one year (a $1,200 value).
AIS DR Services, which start at $299 per month, are available in convenient configurations that may be customized to fit a business' disaster recovery and business continuity (DR/BC) objectives:
- AIS Virtual DR is an enterprise-grade, VMware-based cloud infrastructure service (AIS BusinessCloud1) with private Layer 2 connectivity between Phoenix, San Diego, and Los Angeles
- AIS Hybrid DR is a combination of physical colocation (in the AIS Van Buren Data Center located in Phoenix, Arizona) and AIS Virtual DR above
- AIS Turnkey DR is a fully 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, chief executive officer 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, Arizona."
