SOUTH San Francisco, October 10, 2005
Acronis, Inc. (www.acronis.com), the technological
leader in storage management software, announced that Acronis True
Image Enterprise Server extends Microsoft's current and future
virtualization technologies, including Microsoft Virtual Server
2005 R2, and can provide full disaster recovery for both physical
and virtual servers.
"As system virtualization becomes mainstream, IT
managers will find a greater need for disk imaging for disaster recovery and systems
deployment," said Walter Scott, CEO of Acronis. "Acronis True Image
Enterprise Server today provides the disaster recovery and
bare-metal restore requirements for both the physical server and
the virtual servers residing on it."
"Combining Acronis' real-time disk imaging and
backup capabilities with Microsoft's virtualization technologies,
and royalty-free Virtual Hard Disk (VHD) license, provides a
powerful value proposition for enterprise and hosting customers,"
he said. "Server virtualization is the enabling technology for
tomorrow's dynamic data centers, but without comprehensive tools
like those offered by Microsoft, enterprises will struggle to fully
realize the benefits of the dynamic data centers."
"Enterprises will be able to provision new
physical servers instantaneously using Acronis' award-winning disk
imaging solution on systems running Microsoft Virtual Server 2005
R2," said Stephen Lawton, Acronis director of marketing. "Once
deployed, the new servers can be partitioned into virtual servers
to help better utilize a customer's server investment."
"Recent events along the Gulf Coast and power
outages in Los Angeles have brought to the fore the need for
companies large and small to have disaster recovery strategies," he
continued. "As virtual servers are introduced into more networks,
IT managers need a disaster recovery plan that addresses both
physical and virtual systems."
"Acronis True Image Enterprise Server helps
extend Virtual Server 2005 R2 capabilities to aid customers in
developing powerful disaster recovery strategies" said Zane Adam,
director of marketing, Windows Server Division, Microsoft Corp.
"The work Microsoft is doing to enable the partner ecosystem with
virtualization technologies demonstrates our openness so that
partners can add value on top of the Windows platform."
Acronis True Image Enterprise Server is
currently being shipped. It carries a suggested list price of $999;
volume discounts are available. For additional information, visit
