Dec 14 -- Mimosa Systems, a provider of live-content archiving solutions, has announced the Mimosa NearPoint Disaster Recovery Option, providing automated disaster recovery for Microsoft Exchange environments to maintain application consistency, integrity and uptime. Using the Disaster Recovery module, enterprise users have the option of recovering Exchange services to a local or remote Exchange Server for rapid recovery in minutes, enabling immediate user access to Exchange mailboxes and archive message data in the event of a disaster.

Email has quickly become the mission-critical application for today's businesses. The cost of email downtime can be catastrophic to an enterprise. A recent survey by Osterman Research found that corporate email systems were down between 69 and 300 minutes per month. The cost of email downtime is difficult to quantify for most organizations, but 40 percent of users surveyed estimated that outages would cost up to $50 million, 27 percent said up to $100 million and 20 percent said up to $500 million annually.

Mimosa NearPoint for Microsoft Exchange Server addresses critical customer requirements around email information archiving, eDiscovery, regulatory compliance, business continuity, and storage optimization. Mimosa NearPoint provides legal search workflow, immediate mailbox and message recovery, disaster recovery, email archiving, and self-service search and access in one solution. By leveraging cost-effective storage, NearPoint also optimizes email storage and reduces overall infrastructure costs.
