Cleaning out the Moose
Mon, 03/08/2010 - 6:19pm — mchartzellWe purchased the Moose - our 65' International bucket truck - several years ago so that we could install video surveillance cameras in difficult exterior locations for our customers.
Using the Moose, we can tackle your most difficult - and dangerous - high work.
"Mountains" in Name Only
Tue, 02/26/2008 - 9:21pm — mchartzellThere are a host of colocation, data center, and record storage companies out there advertising themselves as "mountains". Some are actual underground facilities, but upon closer inspection it is revealed the floor level is far below the level of the surrounding area.
What is your plan for Data Retrieval?
Wed, 07/25/2007 - 1:08pm — mchartzellHero or Zero?
Don't wait until you need the data you have backed up to test your retrieval procedures. Your backup processes are not a Ronco Showtime Rotisserie Grill - you can't just "set it and forget it". In the event of data loss, you can be a hero or a zero. Which one do you want to be?
The Dollars and Cents of Paper Records Storage
Mon, 07/02/2007 - 10:18pm — mchartzellWithin an office, the normal ratio of stored files to floor space is 1:1 (cubic foot/square foot). In The Mountain Complex's record storage area the ratio varies from 8:1 to 16:1.
Office space rental and leasing in southwest Missouri varies greatly with location and amenities, but a conservative average places it at around $1.00 per square foot per month.
Disaster Recovery Is Not Enough
Fri, 06/29/2007 - 6:47pm — mchartzellJust as having your backup tapes stored off-site is not sufficient planning for a disaster, simply having a plan of how to recover from the unpreventable is not enough. Consider the following research:
- A study by the University of Texas uncovered the following statistics:
"Only 6% of companies suffering a catastrophic data loss survive, while
43% never reopen and 51% close within two years." - $18,000 is the average hourly cost of downtime for PC networks
- The average cost of downtime ranges from approximately $90,000 per hour
of in the transportation industry (airline reservations) to $6.5
million for large brokerage houses in the finance industry (as reported
by Contingency Planning Research)
