MGIC Investment Corporation (NYSE:MTG) has chosen EMC Corporation (NYSE:EMC) and SunGard Availability Services to design, implement and manage a business continuity solution capable of ensuring near- instant information availability in the event of a disaster.
Having recently consolidated its entire infrastructure onto EMC automated networked storage, MGIC is utilizing SunGard Availability Services' infrastructure and services and EMC's MirrorView and SRDF (Symmetrix Remote Data Facility) software to replicate its information to a remote site 100 miles away from its headquarters.
