InMage and Hitachi Data Systems to Exhibit Combined Data Protection and Storage Solutions for Microsoft Environments

Los Angeles, CA - InMage®, a leading provider of business continuity and disaster recovery software, will exhibit its award-winning product suite DR-Scout in conjunction with Hitachi Data Systems, a wholly owned subsidiary of Hitachi, Ltd., at Microsoft Tech·Ed North America 2009. DR-Scout is a software-only solution that scales from mid-tier to enterprise markets, addressing disaster recovery, continuous local backup and application availability. DR-Scout provides application-consistent recovery and built-in failover for Tier 1 applications including SharePoint, SQL and Exchange, in both physical and virtualized environments based on the Microsoft Hyper-V platform.

"InMage and Hitachi Data Systems are very synergistic in our reduction of cost and complexity for our customers, enabling them to easily and cost-effectively deploy CDP-based DR," said Bob Sandie, executive vice president of corporate development, InMage. "At Tech·Ed, we'll highlight InMage's effectiveness at protecting SharePoint environments with real-time data replication. DR-Scout provides continuous availability and back-end database protection for SharePoint, recoverable to any point in time or bookmarked event. Customers can use DR-Scout to failover SharePoint to a local or remote target recovery point in case of a business disruption or disaster. This process takes a matter of minutes and eliminates the potential for data corruption and loss."

"As a Microsoft Gold Certified Partner, Hitachi Data Systems has helped customers deploy thousands of Windows Server environments with storage solutions that solve real-world IT problems," said Jim Beckman, vice president of business development, Hitachi Data Systems. "InMage's DR-Scout software complements Hitachi storage virtualization and system-based replication solutions and enables customers to fully leverage their Windows environments. During a time when disaster recovery is a critical part of everyday operations, the combination of Hitachi storage virtualization solutions and InMage's DR capabilities results in powerful and effective data protection in Microsoft environments. We're pleased with the optimized disaster recovery, reduced business risk and downtime costs our customers are realizing through our joint solution."

Microsoft Tech Ed 2009 takes place from May 11-15 at the Los Angeles Convention Center in Los Angeles. The InMage exhibit will be co-located within the Hitachi Data Systems Booth #911.
