Double-Take(R) Software today announced that the same reliable data replication and failover capabilities that are leading the industry to protect applications like Microsoft(R) Exchange, SQL Server, and Lotus(R) Notes(R) can replicate and provide continuous availability for BlackBerry(R) Enterprise Server in both physical and virtual environments.

Double-Take Software's high availability for BlackBerry Enterprise Server using Double-Take replication and failover keeps customers and coworkers accessible and responsive regardless of outages or disasters with no system downtime. BlackBerry Enterprise Server is the leading wireless platform for wireless email, Personal Information Management (PIM), instant messaging (IM) and other corporate data.

"Mobile access to communications and business information has become increasingly important for most organizations," said Jeff McDowell, Vice President, Global Alliances, Research In Motion. "The Double-Take high availability offering for BlackBerry Enterprise Server provides added protection to help ensure that mobile professionals can stay connected and supported in the field."

Double-Take Software protects data and applications including Microsoft Exchange, SQL Server, SharePoint, Oracle, BlackBerry Enterprise Server and more in both physical and virtual environments. It combines continuous real-time backup and automatic failover capabilities for disaster recovery, high availability, and centralized backup. Customers such as the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children use BlackBerry(R) Enterprise Server for constant communication and information sharing when looking for a missing child. Minimizing downtime and making applications continuously available is an essential part of their overall disaster recovery plan.

"We needed a fail-proof disaster recovery solution for our critical BlackBerry and Exchange servers," said Steven Gelfound, Director of IT at the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. "Before working with Double-Take Software, we relied on documentation and in the case of major disaster we would refer back to our documentation which is time consuming and complex. What's worse, when time is sensitive, rebuilding from scratch can take many hours. We required a reliable solution to maintain uptime, minimize lost data and provide a quick recovery."

"Enabling BlackBerry Enterprise Server with high availability ensures that all critical business applications are protected," said Bob Roudebush, Director of Solutions Engineering for Double-Take Software. "Double-Take Software holds the leading position in the Windows market for both Exchange and SQL protection - it is a natural progression that businesses are now turning to Double-Take for their BlackBerry Enterprise Server solution."
