Collocation Solutions Implements Disaster Recovery Initiative for The Doctors Company

May 6, 2003

The Doctors Company, a national doctor-owned malpractice insurer, recently named Collocation Solutions, LLC as their outsourced data center provider for their mirrored hot site disaster recovery installation. California-based, The Doctors Company’s decision to develop their own hot site solution was driven by concerns about availability and reliability.

“We needed to make sure our Disaster Recovery site was located in a destination city that was not affected by weather and other risks caused by Mother Nature,” said Richard Diamond, CIO of The Doctors Company. Collocation Solution’s Las Vegas site is a favorable location for California companies that want to mirror and/or back-up data in areas less affected by earthquakes, power shortages or other events.”

Jim DeVenny, president and CEO of Collocation Solutions noted, “We are pleased to be working with The Doctors Company. Many companies are finding mirrored hot sites are a quicker, more affordable solution than traditional DR solutions. Outsourcing saves capital expenditure investment and has a much shorter implementation time-line. A disaster recovery plan is essential for West Coast companies and Las Vegas is the perfect location for a company’s hot site.”

Collocation Solutions mirrored hot sites are 24X7. “It is important to our clients that their corporate data and critical processes are available and accessible at all times,” added DeVenny.

Collocation Solutions Las Vegas 18,000sf data center is centrally located in the valley.
