International Space Station Selects Paragon Software for Disaster Recovery

Paragon Software Group reached a milestone in the company’s brief history as it soared into the heavens on the final flight of America’s Space Shuttle Atlantis. HDM 11 serves as the primary backup and recovery software for the latest generation Ultrasound system also launched on Atlantis.

"The International Space Station’s primary goal is to provide a platform for scientific research. Human subject research is managed by Wyle as part of the Bioastronautics Contract. Certification of the next generation ultrasound required being able to successfully restore the new ultrasound system to its launch configuration. Lockheed Martin, one of the subcontractors operating with Wyle, the prime contractor on the Bioastronautics Contract, needed a recovery solution that could meet its stringent specifications. As is often the case with space-related operations, a customized software solution was needed.

"Bioastronautics personnel evaluated several back-up and recovery tools. Of the tools available Paragon’s HDM 11 came closest to meeting the project’s needs. The Paragon team stepped in to close the gap, providing a customized solution which minimized user interaction."
