Strohl Systems Group Case Study: Qwest

Overview Qwest offers its customers one of the country's most advanced Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) services, advanced frame relay, the country's largest Web-based yellow pages, and PCS wireless services. Qwest knows that a disruption in any of these may affect the business or prevent from being able to reach the loved ones. That's why one of Qwest's top priorities is the continuity of business in the face of any possible outage. Qwest has appointed a risk management team to oversee business continuity planning for the entire corporation. The disaster preparedness manager who has been involved with various aspects of disaster recovery at Qwest for more than four years, helped evaluate and ultimately purchase LDRPS 9.0 Web Server for Qwest.
