ING Investment Management hosts DR site at eHosting DataFort

Complementing its status as the only Middle East function for managing the ING (L) Invest MENA Fund, as well as segregated mandates for regional and international clients, ING Investment Management Middle East has appointed eHosting DataFort (eHDF) as the managed IT services provider for its operations.

Through hosting a disaster recovery (DR) site, eHosting DataFort will seamlessly manage operations and business continuity for ING Investment Management Middle East. Following a process of due diligence and management review, eHosting DataFort was selected for its reputation as a reliable and credible service provider with a varied client portfolio. Furthermore, appointing a provider with a local presence in Dubai was an important pre-requisite for the investment management firm. The IT infrastructure at ING Investment Management Middle East is highly secure with business continuity and disaster recovery plans put in place to mitigate any high risk situations. The production servers and infrastructure are currently located at the firm's data centre in DIFC, while the eHDF facility is used as a secondary disaster recovery site.
