Online, March 3, 2011 (Newswire.com) - AppAssure Software, a provider of award-winning backup and disaster recovery software for mission-critical Windows Applications Servers, today announced it has joined the MVP Nation community event, a two-day intensive technical conference launched by SMB Nation, as a Platinum Sponsor. The show will take place in Seattle, WA on March 3-4, 2011. As Friday's keynote speakers, AppAssure's CMO Steven Toole and Solutions Architect Joseph Hand will be presenting the "Top 10 Backup and Disaster Recovery Secrets You Can't Afford Not to Know" on Friday, March 4, 2011.

"IT pros and service providers will learn and see firsthand how traditional norms of backup and recovery have been shattered by today's innovative solutions," says AppAssure's CMO Steven Toole. "You'll see how to restore a 1 TB server in 5 minutes, how to restore a failed server to dissimilar hardware or virtual machines, and how to effortlessly replicate backups continuously to the cloud, with even the most limited bandwidth."

From the AppAssure presentation, IT Pros will learn time saving backup and recovery tricks, says Steven Toole, "while service providers will see entirely new opportunities to expand service offerings into high availability and disaster recovery while protecting margins and improving service levels to five nines of uptime and no more than 30 minutes of data loss in the event of any disaster."

Traditionally, the event gathered MVPs - Microsoft Most Valuable Professionals, but this year SMB Nation brings the opportunity for the public to attend. Generally, the event will feature more than 30 speakers who will discuss such topics as Data Backup and Recovery, Information Security, Virtualization, to name a few.
