Award-winning Diskeeper Software adopted by ATLAS Consortium in support of Defence Information Infrastructure.

Diskeeper Corporation’s multi-award-winning defragmentation software Diskeeper® has been chosen as part of the EDS led ATLAS Consortium’s package for the Defence Information Infrastructure ‘Future’ project. This ten year defence procurement programme is aimed at developing, implementing, managing and delivering a wide range of services to the Ministry of Defence and its personnel.

Over the last few years Diskeeper Corporation Europe has worked closely with EDS, and is proud to announce Diskeeper’s inclusion in the DII build as the solution to the fragmentation issue.

So what is fragmentation? Furthermore, why is defragmentation so imperative to maintaining a sound and efficient computer network system? Fragmentation can be defined as whole files that are broken up into numerous pieces and scattered to various locations on the hard drive. Fragmentation also occurs through the removal of contiguous free space across the hard drive. Although unknown to some, fragmentation occurs in our systems every time we use them, gradually slowing them down and sometimes even causing them to freeze completely.

This is where Diskeeper’s latest revolutionary software technology comes into play, by using a new automatic background processing technology called InvisiTasking™. This unique feature makes Diskeeper the only defragmenter that can truly deliver transparent operations. System Administrators simply install the software and let it defragment their networks. The new Diskeeper 2007 detects fragmentation the instant it appears and eradicates it on the spot. With Diskeeper 2007, there are no overheads and files are put back together without the user even noticing. The only evidence will be the increase in efficiency of the computer.

The development and release of Diskeeper 2007 with its revolutionary InvisiTasking technology is further strengthening Diskeeper Corporation’s position as the world’s Number One Automatic Defragmenter™. Thomas Doria, VP Sales, Diskeeper Corporation Europe commented: “We are happy that Diskeeper was included in the DII build and look forward to Diskeeper being of assistance to them in the future.’”

About the ATLAS Consortium
The ATLAS Consortium is responsible for delivering the Defence Information Infrastructure (Future) project for the UK Ministry of Defence. ATLAS is led by EDS, with Fujitsu Services as a Tier 1 partner, General Dynamics, LogicaCMG and EADS Defence and Security Systems Ltd (Cogent) as tier 2 partners and IBM and HP as exclusive capability partners. ATLAS was awarded the contract for increment 1 of DII (F) in March 2005, with a budget of approximately US$4.0 billion (£2.3 billion).

The DII single information infrastructure will eventually provide IT services for about 300,000 users on around 150,000 terminals across approximately 2,000 MOD sites worldwide. It will mean that people have an IT infrastructure that supports collaborative working, provides faster and more secure communications and enables teams to store and retrieve information at anytime, anywhere.
