Tying two universities which are located on the both ends of the North American continent, the ambitious dither star recovery project which is develop

The dither star recovery which now, between the university which is ready the campus in the state which is located on the American, east west both ends main state and California state, it tries probably to assure the joint ownership of the hardware and the software over the North American continent (disaster restoration) joint project of for the sake of is advanced. With this manuscript, not only the education system, even from general enterprise, we would like to do to the thing which reports the details of this match which pours attention as a model project of dither star recovery.

The almost identical designates the hypothetical server software "VMware" of blade server and VMware as the basis sight is installed in the campus of both universities, through the 30Mbps circuit of secure VPN connection, is linked to Internet.

Large and large joint project, the Web sight for emergency, started from Exchange E-mail and the match which is directed to the inter operation of the DNS server. As for both schools it is the schedule which adds the new hypothetical server from this summer extending through this fall, but with this new server it seems like "Connect-ED" of the NTI group and so on, ()"the Active Directory" based program of Microsoft and management of study and management of allowance, it has meant that the enterprise application such as the student information system is supported.

By the way, it is the software where Connect-ED, you record audio message in emergency, E-mail, the portable telephone and paging (the pocket pager), instant message (IM) and the like uses the media and transmits.

"Project of both universities (is) very appropriate example of dither star recovery measure", that those where it applauds, the IT investigation company which designates the Colorado state Bordeaux as base, are the upper-class analyst and the Michael carp person of enterprise management . In addition as for the same person who makes storage special, combining, deals with, smaller-scale enterprise it is the person who lectures about the necessity of the cooperation type dither star recovery which.

According to the investigation which is recent, you say that almost 30% of enterprises, does not have having completely vis-a-vis disaster and the kind of emergency which give hindrance to management. You will be able to call one of the reasons, that there is a height of cost of dither star recovery, not to be wrong.

In addition, it is estimated that because it is introduction, the software license of network storage of blade server and 1TB and introduction etc. of new application as a future additional cost, per 1 university cost of approximately 5 ten thousand 4,000 dollars occurs.

According to the place where both universities investigated, when the dither star recovery hot sight of commercial business is utilized with the same environment as this, you say that cost of 120 ten thousand dollars becomes necessary, per 1 month 10 ten thousand dollars, to a year. When you compare with the latest case, truly it is the calculation where as much as year 110 ten thousand dollars or more becomes hight cost of production.

But, so far about project, the project which was advanced ambitiously is not found in other things.
The compensation effect which "is different and" bears

Being joint, although being the relation which advances project, ???? large and the ??? large way, "distance" not only, at the point "of sensitivity" and "culture", the example which is widely different considerably is unusual.

large it is located to the California city vis-a-vis being the university which turn the small ? about several 1,700 of students who are to the throat kana area where large, the white occupies large number, is far from the city center are to, is the large-scale university which the student approximately 8,700 people of various race commute.

But, instead of such of both universities "it is different and", it becomes the barrier, because to compensate mutually, you say that rather it has become strength.

That time Davis says that to become the fetter of advantage - - dither star recovery measure of cooperation type project of the small-scale system the thing - - which can reduce tend enormous cost was emphasized in the session regarding dither star recovery.

The griffin person who receives being impressed to the theory hailed Davis, discussed concerning the method directly of practicing that. But after project starting moving concretely passing then for a while it was.

After importance of disaster restoration is more strongly recognized by ?????, project started moving directing to preparation, in earnest, 2006 summer, was decided that more and more the planning and decision making job start. First, adopting VMWare as fundamental technology was decided, continuously, from DNS until VoIP below in order to support the basic service of 1st stage kept being decided one after another.
