EXAGRID TO DISCUSS DISK-BASED BACKUP APPROACHES
AT THE DATA PROTECTION SUMMIT 2007

Panel of Industry Experts to Address Effective Backup and Restore Methods

Westborough, - Mass. March 6, 2007- ExaGrid Systems, Inc., (www.exagrid.com) the leader in cost-effective and scalable disk-based backup solutions, today announced that Fred Pinkett, vice president of market development, will present as part of the panel on “Effective Backup and Restore Methods” at the Data Protection Summit 2007 in Irvine, California on March 15. Participants in this industry conference will learn about innovative backup methods for protecting digital information assets.

For years, companies relied on cumbersome magnetic tape for data backup, but better, faster and more reliable disk-based options have emerged. As companies make the move to cost and resource efficient disk-based backup solutions, IT executives must understand and evaluate different methods and criteria for selecting the most appropriate solution. These factors include the implementation, cost, and ongoing management of the disk-based backup solution; as well as benefits associated with off-site data recovery and scalability as data continues to grow.

Pinkett will highlight examples of integrated, disk-based backup systems with data reduction technologies. Participants will learn how to determine which approaches are most appropriate for their business requirements and what benefits to expect from disk-based backup.

  • Who: Fred Pinkett, VP of market development, ExaGrid Systems, Inc. 
  • What: “Effective Backup and Restore Methods” panel
  • When: Thursday, March 15, 2007 9:00-9:50 a.m. PT
  • Where: Hilton Irvine/Orange County Airport, Irvine, California
