Phoenix Disaster Recovery Newsletter Web-Letter Vol.
Newsletters are free but they are first sent to members of our mail list.
Sometimes, the emailed newsletter is truncated by your server because of its length. When Skymall Inc., the country's largest in-flight catalog company, launched its online mall in October, CEO and founder Bob Worsley wasn't about to leave disaster recovery plans up in the air. Worsley says his company realized early on the importance of planning to keep its electronic commerce system up and running in spite of any contingency. The company, which offers a selection of products online as well as through a print catalog distributed in airline seat pockets and an 800-number, has moved more quickly than most to ensure that adequate backups are in place, Worsley says. It arises because, following a disaster, data backed up by different methods will usually not be saved to a single common time point.
