RealEC: Data Ops Should Survive Rita

RealEC Technologies, a Houston-based electronic exchange for mortgage fulfillment transactions, has announced that its business recovery preparations are expected to ensure minimal, if any, interruption in service if Hurricane Rita makes landfall near its main data center in Houston.RealEC said it has fully engaged its established business continuation plan, including the deployment of several teams to Dallas, Austin, Texas, and Santa Ana, Calif. "These teams have been organized to respond immediately should the data center operations need to be redirected to RealEC's redundant data center in Austin, Texas," the company said. RealEC added, however, that such a redirection is not expected because its Houston facility includes an on-site generator, flood controls, and redundant Internet connections.
