Santa Clara, CA-based Sureline Systems has Promoted K. K. George as Chief Technology Officer
About the Company
Disasters are constantly occurring, and the modern data center must plan for anything from minor to major human error, or even a full-blown catastrophe. Many of the fundamental principles of business continuity and disaster recovery have been well understood for decades, but existing tools have failed to keep pace with the changing nature of data centers. There are applications that protect physical servers, others that protect virtual servers, and a few that can leverage Clouds. What IT departments want is a DR solution that is easy to purchase, deploy, and administer. It is the mission of Sureline Systems to be the leading supplier of instant disaster recovery solutions for the data center and the Cloud.
