"Act of God or War" clause. Tony Gruen
-----Original Message----- From: Al Musella, DPM [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Saturday, May 11, 2002 11:05 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Geographical redundancy? I have to put together a proposal for a medical office management application which will be used in an ASP (application service provider - not the MS language:) model.. one of the requirements is that the application has to be hosted in such a way that a major disaster (natural or otherwise) in 1 location can't cause the loss of any data, and only a small (maybe an hour) downtime for the application. After the Sept. 11 tragedy, my websites had connectivity problems on and off for a few days. We also had 24 hours of downtime when a hurricane knocked down a bunch of telephone poles near my ISP a few years ago. For this application, that wouldn't have been acceptable. I have no idea how to approach it. Any ideas? Al a1webs.com At 06:08 PM 5/10/2002 -0400, Justin Greene wrote: >I Have to agree.
