ViFiB Announces first Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS) for SaaS
Press Release
Paris (France), Septembre 19, 2012. ViFiB, a global expert of Cloud Computing Disaster Recovery, announces the first commercial service to enhance the resilience of Software as a Service (SaaS). ViFiB innovative service protects businesses against the growing risks of losing their critical data stored on the Cloud, especially in cases of "force majeure" events. ViFiB can guarantee business continuity in case of long downtime which may occur in Software as a Service (SaaS), such as customer relationship management (CRM), messaging, document management or e-commerce.
Jean-Paul Smets, ViFiB CEO, says: « ViFiB service is currently compatible with "Salesforce" customer relationship management (CRM), "Google Apps" messaging and "Oxatis" e-commerce. ViFiB synchronizes critical business data to a third party infrastructure which provides similar core functionality. Through ViFiB, users can access a backup Software as a Service platform which reduces economic damages caused by unlikely failure of their favourite SaaS. »
Cédric de Saint-Martin, ViFiB CTO, adds: «SlapOS, our technology for application provisioning, combined with our massively decentralized infrastructure, allows us to guarantee a resiliency level which is stronger than that of centralized Cloud infrastructure. ViFiB infrastructure is disseminated in dozens and soon thousands sites in several countries in several continents. The destruction of our entire infrastructure - which is the only way to destroy our customer data - is thus much less likely to happen than simultaneous destruction of a few data centers worldwide, by terrorists for example.»
ViFiB "SaaS Resiliency Enhancer" starts from 5,000€ for a protection period of 3 years with a maximum damage coverage of 100,000€. Until November 5th, 2012, the initial setup fee of 2,000€ is waived.
