Using Application Service Providers (ASPs), companies can save money, deploy new enterprise applications with unprecedented speed, and refocus their scarce resources on strategic opportunities rather than application management. By one estimate, the ASP market will grow from $2.3 to $22.7 billion in just three years. This is the first complete decision-maker's guide to ASPs. You'll take a close look at the ASP model, understand where ASP markets and technologies are headed, and discover how to use ASPs to maximum advantage. Leading technology consultant Jon William Toigo sets forth the ASP value proposition in concise, easy-to-understand language, illustrated by real-world case studies. Toigo shows ASPs at work in a broad range of applications, from payroll and accounts payable to storage and Web services -- demonstrating how ASPs can help companies alleviate labor shortages while driving down the cost of owning and managing e-business infrastructure. Understand the current limitations and challenges associated with the ASP model, and discover how today's best companies are managing and minimizing the risks of ASP relationships.

Disaster Recovery Planning

There were 480 companies in the World Trade Center in NYC. Only 230 companies had a disaster recovery plan in place. 100 companies probably did not need one due to their small size. Which leaves 160 companies that did not have a plan in place and as a result they will not be around a year from now! This book explains to system administrators and architects what they need to know to plan for and get through disaster recovery. It incorporates the latest technologies in data storage, networks, server systems, and the Internet (Web-based recovery planning and crisis management) and shows how they can become components of a corporate survival strategy for future disasters. This third edition is completely revised and updated to reflect new information on data storage topologies, challenges for recovery, problem of data re-hosting as well as coverage of latest technologies and trends. The book also covers the lessons learned from WTC disaster and includes references to the California power outages, new mailroom procedures--due to anthrax scares--and new physical access controls that enable you to know where everyone is in a building by tagging them with an electronic badge.
