Mar 14, 2005 : OpenTech Buys Continuity Technology
📅 - OpenTech Sytems (opentechsystems.com), a developer of storage management and disaster recovery solutions, announced late last week that it had acquired business continuity technology from Implementation and Consulting Services (ics-corporate.com). Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.
The technology acquired from ICS provides critical data identification, backup and recovery for the OS/390 and Z/OS marketplace. OpenTech Systems says the new products have been renamed "DR/Critical Data Identifier" and "DR/Critical Data Backup & Recovery." "The addition of ICS's solutions will give our customers a competitive advantage by providing a more automated approach to identifying critical application data, creating backups and recovering those backups," says Steve Sydow, CEO of OpenTech Systems. "The acquired technology from ICS will allow our customers to spend less time within the mainframe business continuity process and allow those resources to be allocated elsewhere, as well as greatly increasing the success of disaster recovery tests and non-test recoveries."
