EMC Corporation has announced Managed Availability Services, a new offering designed to help customers manage, measure and improve their business continuity programs.

"Many organisations find that their existing business continuity program is inadequate to meet service level requirements of the business today and beyond,” said Tom Roloff, Senior Vice president of Consulting and Solutions Integration Services, EMC Global Services. “With increasing business demands for improved data availability and recovery for their growing information infrastructures, these challenges will continue to increase and outpace the ability of many organisations to address them on their own. EMC’s response to these challenges is to leverage its longstanding business continuity experience and expertise by offering Managed Availability Services for its customers, which helps solve these pressing issues."
