"Computer industry analysts estimate that some 60 percent of all corporate data exists only on desktop and laptop computers, " said Walter Scott, CEO of Acronis. "Incorporating Acronis True Image with New Mexico Software backup server is the ideal solution to capture that corporate data and ensure that it is not lost. While traditional server backups are effective for protecting server data, every company should have a combination of server and workstation backup plans."

In this industry first, Unisys is bringing true dynamic partitioning to Intel-based servers running Linux. Dynamic partitioning, the ability to shift processing power to the applications that need it, as they need it, with no human intervention, is a critical function for organizations running complex and demanding workloads. This means that if an application suddenly has a spike in demand, the ES7000 with Linux will automatically allocate additional processing power to that application. When usage goes back to normal, so does the amount of processing power assigned to that application.

"Standardization has been a huge trend in the server industry, especially since Standard High Volume (SHV) servers based on the Intel(R) Pentium(R) Pro processor entered the market nearly ten years ago," said Richard Dracott, general manager of Enterprise Marketing and Planning for Intel's Enterprise Platforms Group. "Unisys, long a price/performance leader in high-end Intel processor-based systems, is continuing this trend by bringing true enterprise class functionality to the Linux environment, to large scale multiprocessing systems based on both Intel Xeon(TM) processors MP and Itanium(R)2 processors."

The entire line of Intel-based Unisys servers, ranging from servers running both 32-bit and 64-bit processors, from 4-way to 32-way, is available with Linux. For the increasing number of IT departments looking to migrate away from their large Unix/RISC systems, Unisys now offers the choice of enterprise class Linux in addition to its Microsoft Windows-based solutions. "Expect to see Unisys expand its ES7000 server offerings very soon -- further enabling RISC-free environments for mission-critical solutions," McGrath said.

In addition, Unisys has optimized its Server Sentinel software, which provides IT managers the ability to manage both Windows and Linux environments from one screen - something industry analysts say no other company offers today. Continuing this cutting-edge work, Unisys engineers are developing several other unique enhancements to the Sentinel offering including Application Sentinel, Database Sentinel and Security Sentinel.

"The entrance of Unisys into the Linux market is a great endorsement of the Linux platform," said Hal Bennett, vice president of business development of Novell. "Combining the scalability and performance power of Novell's SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server with Unisys deep experience in mission critical computing gives customers a compelling new option for deploying Linux at the core of the enterprise."
