          If a disaster strikes, will you be prepared? As organizations face such situations in growing
          numbers, they are realizing the costly, far-reaching impacts of not having key capabilities
          readily deployed when emergency situations occur-impacts that affect your
          Infrastructure, employees, customers, operations and day-to-day lives.

          Heightened exposure to disruptive and catastrophic events in recent years coupled with
          increasing government and commercial interdependencies make disaster recovery and
          crisis management a critical business imperative.                 
          
          IBM Infrastructure Recovery Services can help ease the negative effects by showing you
          how to prepare for, respond to and recover from disruptive events, from the minor to the
          catastrophic.
          Working with IBM, you can better recover from events that could otherwise greatly damage
          your operations and brand reputation.

      Highlights

• Avoid the infrastructure costs of an in-house solution-only pay for what you need.
• Help minimize the impact of a disruption on revenue and profit, while protecting customer relationship.
• Recover quickly from an unplanned disruption, with minimal data and revenue loss.
• Design and validate a recovery plan that meets your specific recovery objectives.
• Supports ongoing productivity by enabling your key personnel (such as traders and call center employees) to work during a disruptive event.
• Work with experts who are deeply knowledgeable in regulatory compliance issues  across geographies and industries.

    
          Simplify storage and data management while enabling business growth and
          innovation.
                                
           As business technology continues to evolve, the volume of information available to
    businesses continues to grow exponentially. Across all industries, more information needs
           to be stored, managed, and used by the business to drive future decisions. Main drivers
    for this information explosion include: Compliance - the requirement for legal and regulatory
           needs to store key information; Business Value - the more a business knows about its
    markets, customers, competition, and overall business climate the better decisions they can
    make for the future; Customer Satisfaction - as business technology has increased, so too
           has consumer technology. Customers in all markets are becoming increasing techno
           savvy, and demanding more from the businesses that serve them.           

           In today's environment, when thinking about Information Infrastructure,one needs to think
   global and have a worldwide perspective. Businesses operate 24x7x365, and there is
           no such thing as "real-time". It's about "all the time".
           
Access to information is critical and an  imperative that most companies cannot afford to
           take a risk on. In the event of an outage or decreased performance, the level of intensity
           rises exponentially and the problem dramatically shifts to information recovery and
           damage control.

           IBM Storage and Data Services can help customers prevent such tragedies and ensure
           information is securely available at any time, all the time. IBM Global Technology Services
           offers service products that can:

• help with enabling clients to gain insight into how their LOBs are using storage assets and institutionalize storage best practices across the enterprise,
• provide the structure for a comprehensive information archiving strategy,
• help maximize the value of information by reducing the risks to a customer's business that come as a result of poor information infrastructure management.

     
          Create a service-oriented architecture (SOA) infrastructure by connecting and reusing
          assets, while safeguarding investments with governance and oversight. 

          Rapidly integrate the business processes, applications and information across your
          enterprise by using an SOA infrastructure to help leverage your information resources

          supports the integration of applications in an SOA environment. The services connect and
          reuse existing assets in your infrastructure and create governance and oversight to lower
          the risk of SOA initiatives. Our compelling intellectual capital and engagements methods can
          speed implementation, helping to lower time to benefit and reduce risk.
       
       You can benefit from these services by:                  

• Helping people interact more effectively, make better decisions and develop new ideas faster
• Decreasing IT complexity and increasing operational flexibility
• Helping to reduce risk by proving ROI and the business value of an SOA infrastructure  in incremental steps
• Preventing new technologies from introducing additional problems and complexities.

     
        Build and manage a dynamic and optimized infrastructure that supports business,
        operational and product innovation using our portfolio of server services.
        
        Almost universally, organizations have spent the last few decades increasing their use of IT
        to support business operations. More business applications. More enterprise e-mail
        capabilities. More automation. More access to data and the Internet, both inside and outside
        the office.        

        To keep up with increasing business demands and emerging technologies, many
        organizations added additional capacity often finding themselves laden with complex,
        sprawling IT infrastructures. Management costs increased while server utilization rates fell.
 
        Meanwhile, mergers and acquisitions contributed to the complexity. Little by little,
        organizations are regaining control over their server infrastructures, realizing that the
        complexity can make it difficult to adapt to changing business conditions. They are aiming to
        simplify and optimize their computing environments in order to:

• Reduce costs.
• Achieve business innovation initiatives.
• Improve application and network service levels.
• Deploy new applications and technologies quickly and cost-effectively.
• Streamline mergers and acquisitions.
• Address compliance with corporate policies and governmental regulations.
• Manage business growth.
