Lakeview Technology distributes disaster recovery software

Lakeview Technology Inc. (Lakeview), worldwide leader in infrastructure software for the information enterprise, recently announced participation in an IBM program in which free evaluation versions of Lakeview's MIMIXR drl tm availability software will be distributed with all IBM 15/OStm (OS/400 V5R3) installation disks bundled with new iseries servers and upgrade packages. Lakeview is the only high availability vendor included in the distribution.

"IBM"s program provides MIMIX drl to thousands of small and mid-sized businesses who need an availability solution but are't aware of such a unique product," said Bill Hammond, Lakeview's product strategy director for MIMIX drl. "Conveniently putting our easy-to-use evaluation within reach gives these folks a chance to see how easy to manage our solution is. No journaling. Simple Windows interface. Most importantly, this program demonstrates our value to IBM customers," Hammond said.

MIMIX drl is a low-cost enhanced recovery solution that lets users capture recovery point periodically throughout the day-dramatically reducing exposure for data loss in the event of a disaster.

Since MIMIX drl can capture multiple recovery points to a target server over the course of a single day, users are assured of a more recent recovery image than what once-a-day tape backup provies. Plus, recovery data is easily restored from disk. MIMIX drl minimally impacts the existing environment because it works efficiently within the existing IT environment and does not require journaling.

Lakeview Technology is represented in Sri Lanka by the Golden Key Company-one of the country's leading IT solutions providers and a first-tier IBM Business Partner.
