World's First Storage Assurance Provider to Present Its

Breakthrough AssuredStorage Services As Part of Eight-City Tour

Across North America

Storability is joining Network World, one of the technology industry's leading publications, on a barnstorming tour across North America to educate enterprises about storage options and innovations.

"Making Network Storage Work For You," a one-day, free educational seminar will be presented in eight major North American cities this month and next. Network World's Town Meeting format gives corporate representatives an opportunity to hear from the vendors who are shaping the near future of networked storage. They will also have a chance to gain insight from industry experts from the Aberdeen Group and Network World.

The seminar's topics and presentations will explore SANs, NAS, storage virtualization, Web-based storage and storage service providers; look at new approaches to solving today's storage problems; reveal what to expect from storage products on the market; and teach guidelines for choosing the right protocol: SCSI, fiber channel, storage over IP, or storage over LAN, MAN, and WAN, among other storage options.

Storability's representatives at the Town Meetings will include Kirby Wadsworth, vice president of marketing; Hemant Kurande, vice president of solutions architecture; and Asim Zaheer, director of solutions marketing. In addition to discussing the emergence of storage assurance as a breakthrough alternative to data storage challenges, Storability will also have an informational booth at each seminar so participants can learn more about Storability's AssuredStorage(SM) services.

The tour is making eight stops across North America: New York, Nov. 7, Philadelphia, Penn., Nov. 8; Chicago, Ill., Dec. 5; Washington, D.C., Dec. 6; Toronto, Ontario. Dec. 7; San Francisco, Calif., Dec. 12; Irvine, Calif., Dec. 13; and Dallas, Texas, Dec. 14.
