Mt Knox Opens Data Center Servicing Small Businesses

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) July 11, 2006 -- Mt Knox announces the opening of it's first small scale data center designed to provide small businesses with the ability to outsource their data center floor space, implement disaster recovery solutions, high availability, and server co-location projects. This data center is located in the metropolitan Nashville area and is intended to service small and medium size businesses in the Nashville and central Tennessee area.

These small scale data centers are designed to provide small and medium size businesses with the ability to co-locate computer and networking systems at one or more off-site locations, thus providing redundant processing capabilities for their critical business functions.

These small scale data centers are referred to by Mt Knox as Availability Centers, and provide inexpensive business continuity services for our small and medium size clients. In fact, the cost is so low, many small organizations may choose to outsource their entire data center floor space and utilize Mt Knox's Availability Centers to host all of their computing and network systems.

The ability to remotely monitor and manage modern computer systems enables the possibility of locating the physical computer systems in facilities with less expensive floor space, i.e., a Mt Knox Availability Center. Since many small and medium size businesses currently dedicate expensive office space to hosting networking and computer equipment, the cost of outsourcing this floor space to Mt Knox may actually be FREE, based on the cost of the recovered office space compared to the cost of our services.

Mt Knox Availability Centers provide these greatly reduced cost services by localizing the facilities into strip-mall type store fronts, and providing only those services desired by our clients. We have found that many organizations desire only floor space, security, and access to power, networking, communications. Our Availability Centers provide just those services, thus eliminating most of the personnel overhead associated with running a large data center.

Since most disasters that befall any organization are small, such as power outages, network outages, system and equipment failures, most business functions can be protected utilizing these local Availability Centers. Since these Availability Centers are locally placed, access to these centers is easy, fast, and maintainable. This local placement also greatly reduces the cost of implementing a disaster recovery plan.

Please contact Mt Knox to determine how your organization can benefit from outsourcing your data center floor space, recovery of expensive office space, or utilizing our availability centers to provide high availability, disaster recovery, and business continuity capabilities.
