| It includes remote replication, continuous back-up, data protection, recovery management and information tiering. InMage's first product DR-Scout provides remote replication and disaster recovery solutions for structured and unstructured data. |
| "We provide data recovery and back-up solutions that can be used by a company at any business event level, application state, location or any storage subsystem," Malavalli said. InMage currently has around 30 customers that use its data continuity solutions. |
| InMage has earmarked $2 million investments for its Indian operations till December-end this year, and according to Malavalli, the company will not hesitate to invest more if required. |

| "This apart, the Indian operations can provide localised support for this region too," Malavalli said. "We will, therefore, be recruiting 40 people for the Indian operations by the end of this calender year," he added. |
