eHosting DataFort offers disaster recovery solutions to support DWTC's events ...
EHosting DataFort (eHDF), the region’s leading managed IT and advisory services provider and a member of TECOM Investments, today announced it is providing disaster recovery (DR) facilities for the events and exhibition management systems at Dubai World Trade Centre (DWTC), one of the most prestigious and largest exhibition centres in the Middle East.
Business continuity and IT disaster recovery, an integral part of the business continuity framework, are of the highest priorities for DWTC with event managers depending heavily on its venue and exhibition management systems that cope with the entire lifecycle of the events. eHDF is providing a disaster recovery hosting site to DWTC in its secure facilities to host three most critical business systems. This includes exhibition and event management system, financial systems and all shared files between the various departments.
DWTC’s initiative to lease the Disaster Recovery IT infrastructure from eHDF rather than build a new data centre comes as part of its aim to convert capital expenditure (CAPEX) into operating expenditure (OPEX).
Yasser Zeineldin, CEO at eHosting DataFort, said: “DWTC organises large scale global events that reflect the strong reputation of the country. They needed to put in place a robust disaster recovery and business continuity management framework that is built around their business and its critical processes. The task entailed providing a highly secure and robust IT environment for their DR site. Through the successful implementation of this project, DWTC is able to gain the confidence of its users and customers by ensuring business readiness at all times.
“Following the implementation, DWTC is assured of uninterrupted functioning of its critical business applications in case of disaster, enabling users to access up-to-date information for all activities related to the events.” said: “Building a data centre was not an economical decision, especially as the scope of the project was limited only to the most critical business applications and did not, therefore, justify the build decision. Additionally, outsourcing has helped us to avoid deploying our resources on this task, enabling us to remain focused on the core business functions.
“The selection process was not easy. After extensive research on the bigger players in the market and their capabilities, we made an informed decision to choose eHosting DataFort as our service provider. Its state-of-the-art data centre facilities, reputation in the market as one of the leading and reliable service providers in the region and strong client base were some of the criteria that worked in their favour.

Toward a 10-Step Project Management Framework for the Crisis ...

Crises are so fun, aren’t they? They give us that little “high,” after all…but they are no way to live. Especially when you have to track numerous projects of varying kinds.
I know there is a huge literature out there on project management, but for some reason it doesn’t seem to reach creative professionals all that often. Maybe because we’d rather spend our time being creative than thinking about this stuff.Therefore I offer a really really simple approach. I am hoping that others build on this so that we can ultimately “open-source” what should be a side process that enables us to focus on the work we’re getting paid for.
Maybe the most important result that I am hoping for is that project management becomes a part of our vocabulary. Just like we get that outreach should ideally be subsumed under a larger brand.
I did the best I could to make this visually interesting, but if it looks childish – at least you’re reading it right?

Project management is a tough discipline. But in the end it is worth it.
Break the rules and you’ll find short-term reward. Sure you may please the customer by letting them make the rules. But long-term this is problematic, because improvised commitments tend to multiply and get easily broken.
Consider being boring. Underpromise and overdeliver.
You may not be the most dazzling communication shop out there. But then again, “Nobody ever got fired for buying IBM.”
