On the edge

Sonasoft Corp.'s Backup/Recovery and Disaster Recovery solution for Microsoft Exchange and SQL servers combines two solutions in one package.Usually, organizations must choose one solution for backup recovery and another for disaster recovery. That means two ­ unintegrated ­ solutions from two vendors.With increasing dependence on Exchange and SQL servers, organizations need quick recovery of e-mails and databases and also instant failover to a local or remote server when disaster strikes.The SonaSafe solution is centralized management software that provides automated disk-to-disk backup and recovery via an easy-to use point-and-click graphical user interface.Silicon Graphics' SGI Diskless Operation Server Solution manages lab environments' deluge of classified data that requires processing at multiple levels of security.Government and contractor labs often have hundreds of PCs, each with its own system drive. To change classification levels, technicians must wheel carts loaded with disk drives to each location to swap drives to switch from one classification to another. The SGI Diskless Operation Server Solution helps to simplify management of data at multiple security levels in a lab environment by simplifying the process of changing classification levels.Sentel Corp. is launching a lighter, smaller, portable sensor integration technology with its Micro Remote Data Relay system that its designers are calling the iPod of sensor networking.The MicroRDR is a compact, smart networking tool that simultaneously monitors and controls numerous sensors, including those for radiological, biological, chemical and other toxic agents. The MicroRDR can be deployed in stadiums, subway systems, airports, hotels, offices, shopping malls, theaters and wherever security is a priority.
