挑战
Graubard Miller, a mid-sized legal firm based in New York City, was in need of a more cost-effective and reliable disaster recovery (DR) solution. The firm had a DR solution in place, a physical co-location site, but it was neither reliable nor cost-effective. The maintenance of the co-location DR solution was overwhelming with many manual steps required to do a refresh. Moreover, there was no cost-effective way to do DR testing, making reliability a constant question mark. The firm's director of technology, Steven Heller, began to investigate using cloud for disaster recovery. He investigated multiple cloud-based DR solutions before deciding to go with iland.

Flex Contact Center: Supporting rapid business growth with IBM Connections Cloud and IBM Verse
Flex Contact Center, a professional services company offering telesales, call-center, anti-attrition, back-office, helpdesk and collection services, has grown rapidly since its establishment in 2009.
