For immediate release

Avisit Solutions Ltd, creators of disaster recovery solutions for Oracle® Database Standard Edition & Standard Edition One sites worldwide, is one of the latest recipients of TechNZ funding. TechNZ is the Foundation for Research, Science and Technology’s business assistance programme.

Building on the success of their flagship product Dbvisit, Avisit Solutions is to develop database replication software that protects and distributes data enterprise-wide; extending the usefulness of standby infrastructure for business intelligence needs, integration and information sharing.

“We’re delighted to have received this R&D funding to expand our disaster recovery product portfolio,” says Arjen Visser, CTO and company founder, Avisit Solutions.

“There is strong demand for affordable, cross platform database replication solutions as organisations look for ways to protect their data and improve business profitability. This funding will allow us to extend our product offering over the coming year to meet this demand. We’re pleased that TechNZ have decided to invest in our growth.”

“Investment in businesses that raise New Zealand’s global reputation for innovation and creativity is at the core of what we do,” says Mark Gallagher, TechNZ spokesperson. “We look forward to seeing Avisit Solutions step up to the next level through research and development.”

Founded in 2000, Avisit Solutions grew out of Arjen Visser’s previous experience as a database specialist in New Zealand and Europe. Routinely called in to fix “home-grown” disaster recovery solutions that lacked robustness, or were very hard to configure and maintain, inspired him to develop and launch Dbvisit in 2006. Today Dbvisit is trusted by customers in over 50 countries worldwide.
