New Shinsaibashi Data Center will provide business continuity and disaster recovery services for Osaka

Internet Initiative Japan Inc., one of Japan's leading Internet access and comprehensive network solutions providers, and Net Care, Inc., the IIJ Group contact center and network operation outsourcing company, have announced the opening of the new Shinsaibashi Data Center, in Osaka, which will begin operations in July 2008.

As data center usage has increased in recent years, so has the need for remote backup sites outside of Tokyo, which can be used for disaster recovery and business continuity.

The Shinsaibashi Data Center is IIJ's fourteenth. The center is based on an outsourcing-on-demand concept, and provides a wide range of services such as system operation and monitoring, in addition to basic collocation services. The data center provides a platform on which other IIJ group services can be run, providing a total network solution, from network systems construction to systems outsourcing. Osaka is a hub of economic activity, and the convenient location within the city limits combined with earthquake-resistant structures that absorb shocks, make this an ideal service for either outsourcing or for use as a disaster recovery site.
