Cristie Software a leading system recovery, replication, and migration solutions provider, today announced the completion of the acquisition of Storix, Inc. for an undisclosed sum. Storix is a provider of backup and recovery software for Linux, AIX and Solaris based virtual and physical systems through its product SBAdmin (System Backup Administrator). SBAdmin was released in 2004 as the first flexible full-system backup and bare-metal recovery solution for Red Hat, Ubuntu, and SUSE Linux on x86 hardware and later for SUSE Linux running on IBM’s Power Systems (Little Endian). Storix provides system and data protection to over 200 customers, mostly in the United States.
Applying AI and Machine Learning to improve system recoveries and replications
With the constant rise in cybercrime, having the ability to recover systems, or failover to a clean replica, is vital to minimise the impact of downtime and hopefully mitigate the need to pay any ransom demands. Although modern disaster recovery software tools can automate recovery and replication processes there are still many scenarios that will cause a recovery or replication to fail.

Ransomware is a type of malware that can be covertly installed on a computer, without the knowledge, or even interaction, of the user.

5 barriers to successful recovery assurance
Many recent studies have revealed there is a worrying lack of regular testing of the viability of backups, and there are good reasons for that. Finding time to run tests without disrupting day-to-day usage seems an impossible task, which is why many organisations rely on a ‘fingers-crossed it will work’ strategy.

Windows 2003 versus the asteroid
When support for an IT product is withdrawn, the formal announcement is greeted by many with a cursory glance; the rumour mill let them know months, or even years, ago and they have already executed Plan B. But this still leaves a number of organisations for vendors to peck over, vying for their business. And that’s where the scaremongering comes in.
Why IT sleeps better with Cristie

This is more than the latest buzz phrase in the backup and recovery industry – it’s essential for a successful and auditable disaster recovery strategy.
Cloud computing – back to basics
Everybody seems to have a different definition when it comes to the ‘Cloud.’ When combined with ‘computing’ the meaning gets even more complicated. One of the simplest and narrowest descriptions of cloud computing is it being multiple virtual servers available over the internet.
