VirtualSharp Software CEO to Speak on Cloud-Aware Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery at UP Cloud Computing Conference

MCLEAN, VA -- (Marketwire) -- 12/10/12 -- VirtualSharp Software, the leading provider of next generation automated Disaster Recovery solutions for private and public clouds, today announced that its CEO and Co-Founder Carlos Escapa will speak at UP's third annual Cloud Computing Conference on December 12, 2012 at 11 a.m. PT at the South San Francisco Conference Center.

During his talk on Cloud-Aware Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery, Escapa will talk about the transformational effect of the cloud in Disaster Recovery planning and service resilience. Legacy tools and existing recovery methodologies developed when data centers were not virtualized lack service awareness and do not provide metrics that IT can use to comply with Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery policies at all times.

The solution is Recovery Assurance, a methodology that orchestrates recovery processes across clouds so that they can collaborate to assure recovery in case of an outage. Recovery Assurance touches the entire delivery stack, from storage to applications, to certify that all components involved in service delivery are always operational in a recovery cloud, either private or public, with predictable and measurable service level agreements.
