“Plug In and Protect” Physical and Virtual Server Workloads
As a Platespin Gold Partner, Technology First is proud to present this revolutionary solution to DR and BC requirements. PlateSpin Forge is a 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.
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 enterprises as well as departments and branch offices 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.

- Plug in and protect physical or virtual workloads
- Whole workload protection - not just data
- One-click failover
- Failback to dissimilar hardware

Where It Fits
Traditional recovery infrastructures have failed to keep pace with business requirements. Until now, organizations have had to choose between costly and complex clustering and high-end replication solutions or suboptimal lower-cost alternatives like tape backups that can be slow and cumbersome to test and restore. PlateSpin Forge is the first recovery hardware appliance that leverages virtualization technology to provide a flexible and affordable solution for protecting production workloads.
With PlateSpin Forge, organizations can achieve recovery time and point objectives that approach the level of protection provided by clustering for a cost that is closer to imaging and tape backup solutions.
