All four operating rooms at the Colchester East Hants Health Centre
will be back in service Wednesday morning following a malfunction with
the ventilation system.
The issue has been traced back to an
issue with the ventilation system that pumps humidified air (sterile
steam) into the operating rooms. The malfunction led to a higher
concentration of steam entering the vents, which condensed into water,
pooled in the ducts and leaked into rooms in the area.
“Prior
to moving in our staff spent several months testing and becoming
familiar with our new building systems and it is discouraging to have
issues like this one arise,” said Peter MacKinnon, CEO of the
Colchester East Hants Health Authority, in a news release. “This was
not something we expected or could have planned for, but we are
grateful to our team members and partners who responded so quickly and
worked so hard to restore our surgical program.”
Since the
problem was discovered staff has been working with vendors and
contractors to dry out the areas, replace damaged ceiling tiles and
insulation and test the various systems.
As of Monday afternoon
two of the four operating rooms at the facility were back in service.
Late Tuesday afternoon, following a complete assessment, staff
determined that surgeries could safely resume in the remaining two
operating rooms and environmentalHow cheaply can I build a solar power systems? services staff began the extensive cleaning required to prepare the rooms for surgery.
Staff
is continuing to work with vendors and consultants to pinpoint the
cause of the malfunction and the system will remain on by-pass until
the coming weekend when crews will continue their investigation into
the source.
Actifio, the radically simple copy data storage
company, today announced significant product and service enhancements
designed to make managing copy data – and transforming the underlying
economics of enterprise storage – even easier.We offers custom Injection Mold
parts in as fast as 1 day. The company introduced new product and
service packages, a storage industry-first “pay-per-use” utility
pricing option, new deployment tools, and a suite of new features in
its 5.1 software release. The enhancements are designed to ease the way
for customers and channel partners to embrace Actifio’s compelling
economic value proposition, which propelled the company to 700 percent
growth in 2012.
Today’s enterprise IT infrastructure faces a
tidal wave of data, coupled with the growing cost and complexity of the
software tools, hardware, and personnel required to manage it. Savvy IT
executives are recognizing that the driver of this exponential growth
is the copy data – redundant copies of corporate data created by point
tools to meet the business requirements to protect, share, and analyze
information. With a purpose-built solution to address the root cause of
the copy data problem – siloed data protection and availability
applications - Actifio offers customers the ability to recover anything
instantly for a total cost of ownership up to 90 percent less than the
traditional model.
To make it easier for channel partners and
customers to embrace the Actifio model, the company today announced its
new 100T product package. The new Actifio 100T is designed for rapid
deployment by mid-sized IT organizations, or departments of larger IT
organizations. It protects both physical and virtual IT environments
with the world’s most efficient data management technology, and
features integrated Actifio Optimized Storage capable of protecting up
to 100 Terabytes of production data and 1,000 virtual machines. Actifio
100Ts can be combined in a scale-out architecture to support up to 2
PetaBytes of production data, with custom configuration of the
appliance.
To help customers take better advantage of their
existing storage, the company also announced its new Actifio Gateway, a
similarly robust hardware and software tandem that doesn’t include its
own storage, but instead can virtualize and manage a wide variety of
third party storage devices. The Actifio Gateway is designed for
regionally and globally distributed enterprises, including cloud and
managed service providers. It’s built for a large mix of physical,
virtual, and heterogeneous server and storage infrastructure, and also
scales to handle multi-petabytes of data.
Actifio’s
revolutionary new utility pricing model enables customers to pay as
their data volumes grow, avoiding the significant up-front capital
requirements that challenge many procurement cycles. Actifio’s
all-inclusive utility pricing for a complete storage system – hardware,
software, storage, installation, and maintenance – is based on a
per-terabyte per-year basis, with rates decreasing as volumes increase.
For CIOs implementing chargeback models, or Service Providers looking
to align procurement with market demand, Actifio’s utility pricing model
delivers simplicity, flexibility, and predictability. Customers who
wish to purchase the hardware and services through traditional means
will still have that option.
Actifio is also introducing
version 5.1 of its software, which includes several new features in the
areas of data governance, business resilience, and service management.
As enterprise environments put a greater focus on security and control
of application data, Actifio has ramped-up its data governance
features to include SLA-based data integrity validation; enhanced SLA
compliance reporting; user/role-based auditing; LDAP and Active
Directory integration; and automated disk-to tape enhancements directly
integrated into Actifio’s SLA Lifecycle Manager for
compliance-oriented, long-term retention.
Service providers
around the globe have embraced Actifio as a strategic technology to
accelerate new service introduction, deliver new functionality and
customer satisfaction, and improve their business margins. Actifio 5.1
continues to advance service management functionality by addressing
operations and delivery needs with enhanced system monitoring, alert
correlation and processing, auto-updates, VPN access enhancements, and
improved integrated reporting.
Leading storage analyst firm,
ESG has independently validated that Actifio 5.1 can provide almost 300
percent IT efficiency savings over the competition, and a 400 percent
better annual total cost of ownership (TCO) than alternative storage
solutions.
“In a world that moves faster than ever, enterprises
faces what we call ‘The Agility Imperative,’” said Actifio Founder
& CEO Ash Ashutosh. “Actifio was designed from the start to free
businesses from the undue burden of wildly redundant copy data, free IT
executives from the complex tangle of data protection and availability
applications consuming more and more of their IT budgets, and free IT
managers from the stress of unmet SLA’s and recovery time objectives
impossible to deliver with 20th century technology. These enhancements
take us further down that path, making radically simple copy data
storage easier to buy, deploy, and love than ever before.”

online. An hour later it was customized to our environment, backing

goes wrong, now I just go back in time and mount the snapshot directly
from Actifio. To our users it looks like a server reboot, to us it’s
the ultimate peace of mind.”
"Technology is an invaluable
learning tool here at the university, which means that I need to plan
for maximum uptime and availability. In the past this meant frequent
data protection and business resiliency testing that required planning,
application downtime and costly excess infrastructure which ultimately
impacted our users," said Rich Siedzik,Bay State Cable Ties
