PlateSpin Forge Virtualized Recovery Appliance


“Plug In and Protect” Server Workloads
PlateSpin Forge is a purpose-built consolidated recovery hardware appliance that protects both physical and virtual server workloads using embedded virtualization technology. In the event of a production server outage or disaster, workloads can be rapidly powered on in the PlateSpin Forge recovery environment and continue to run as normal until the production environment is restored.

The PlateSpin Forge appliance ships with prepackaged storage, consolidated recovery software and virtualization technology that is ready to go out-of-the-box. PlateSpin Forge protects up to 25 server workloads up to a total of 2.5 terabytes of data. For larger implementations, multiple appliances can be deployed.

By dramatically reducing the time and specialized technical resources required to plan, provision, deploy and test a recovery environment, PlateSpin Forge puts workload protection and recovery within reach for small and medium-sized businesses as well as departments or branch locations within larger enterprises. With PlateSpin Forge, organizations can begin reliably protecting their physical and virtual workloads in a matter of hours as opposed to months.
