FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

WEBVISIONS DEPLOYS MANAGED STORAGE AND RECOVERY SERVICES WITH NSTOR TECHNOLOGY

Network-based Data Recovery Management and Managed SAN solutions bolster hosting provider's extensive managed service offerings.

Singapore, 16 January, 2002 - Webvisions, a leading hosting provider in Asia, today announced that it will deploy storage technology from NSTOR in offering large-scale network-based, remotely accessible NAS (Network Attached Storage) and managed SAN (Storage Area Networks) services to its clientele under the banner of its on-demand storage and data recovery solutions programmes siteStore and siteBackup.

As part of Webvisions' comprehensive Professional Managed Services suite, siteStore and siteBackup will address the growing need for outsourced storage, backup and recovery services that maximize uptime while providing rapid scalability and availability. siteStore and siteBackup will couple nSTOR's data storage technology with Webvisions' high-bandwidth, redundant, carrier-neutral IDC (Internet Data Center) connectivity and 24/7 professional expertise, allowing Webvisions to offer complex failover services for large-scale distributed and centralized data operations.

siteStore and siteBackup will also offer affordable, highly redundant, automated data backup and file archiving storage alternatives that scale to meet the mission-critical business requirements of individual customers. The services will include scheduled full and incremental backups and customizable backup policies with off-site or tape media storage options for further redundancy in data recovery.

"With the NexStor's SAN-ready storage solutions, the complex logistics of managing and administrating separate server farms are minimized, allowing providers to manage their storage portfolio with optimized performance. nSTOR's capability for real-time, local and remote monitoring of all storage devices will allow Webvisions to deliver superior storage

"With substantial client growth in the last year alone, Webvisions has been presented with new challenges in providing high-speed, scalable, outsourced storage offerings," said Webvisions CEO Roger Lim. "nStor's multi-platform, remotely accessible SAN and NAS capabilities have enhanced our ability to deliver world-class storage solutions with greater efficiency and flexibility. In doing so, we will empower our customers' business continuity strategies by giving them the tools they need to reduce costs and increase the availability and performance of their e-business applications."

Forrester Research predicts that companies will increase their average online storage capacities by a factor of 10 over the next five years. That means storage and associated administration will grow from 5 percent of current information systems budgets to 17 percent in 2003, the firm estimates.
