IRVINE, CA--(Marketwire - September 11, 2007) - Vision Solutions, the leading high availability
(HA) solution provider in the IBM System i and System p markets, is
sponsoring an upcoming Manufacturing Business Technology magazine Executive
Broadcast seminar on the imperative of HA for manufacturing companies. The
live webinar is also sponsored by IBM and will be held on Tuesday,
September 25 at 1 p.m. EDT.
"Manufacturing companies of all sizes must have secure and pervasive access
to all data relevant to their business, customers, and suppliers -- in
essence, electronic collaboration that's available 24/7 is the rule for
companies of any size," says Alan Arnold, CTO for Vision Solutions, and one
of the presenters in the webinar. "For lean and innovative companies, the
impact of systems downtime is more far-reaching and harmful than ever."
The informative event will highlight how high availability solutions
ensure application failures don't interrupt users or disrupt business
operations. Focused on continuous operations and quick, automated server
failure recovery, they help manufacturers eliminate costly planned or
unplanned downtime in plant production, supply chain collaboration, and
customer management.
Industry Analyst Julie Fraser, Principal of Industry Directions, will also
speak at the event and the moderator is Sidney Hill, Jr., executive editor
of Manufacturing Business
Technology (MBT). "Innovation and responsiveness are critical to
manufacturers -- in their products, services, plant operations, supply
chain, distribution and customer-facing activities," says Ms. Fraser.
"Because business is complex, employees rely on application software to
work which means technology must be available 24/7 to stay competitive."
To better understand the costly issues related to planned and unplanned
system downtime and to learn how to evaluate HA as a justifiable component
to backup and recovery strategies in manufacturing companies, be sure to
tune in to the September 25 event. For more information and to register,
