Press Release Summary = Deer Park ISD, a Texas school district well known for their
quality instructional program, facilities, and staff, announced today their choice
of Data Foundry to provide disaster recovery services for the district.

Press Release Body = Deer Park ISD will utilize Data Foundry\'s Austin Data Center as
part of their daily backup strategy and also as a recovery site to house their
mission-critical server infrastructure in a disaster situation.

Deer Park ISD, located southeast of Houston, found itself dangerously close to
hurricanes approaching the Texas Gulf during the 2005 storm season. This compelled
the district to seek a disaster recovery solution that would give them an additional
failsafe towards keeping their data safely out of harm\'s way in the event of a
disaster affecting their area..

"Deer Park ISD has a reputation for providing excellent service to this community
and to our students. In order to maintain that level of excellence it is necessary
for us to be able to retain server operations critical to daily activities in the
event of a hurricane or other disaster in the Deer Park community. Our teachers and
staff must continue to receive their paychecks on time, our students\' confidential
records must be protected, and our schools must be able to get back to the important
business of educating our students as soon as possible. Data Foundry's reputation
for quality and high levels of availability led us to select them as our disaster
recovery provider. I have been so impressed with the caliber of Data Foundry\'s data
center and customer service that I have recommended them to other school districts
seeking disaster recovery services," said Ryan Petru, Director of IT for Deer Park
ISD.

"Data Foundry provides disaster recovery services to institutions within the Texas
education sector, including St. Edward\'s University and San Jacinto College. More
and more schools from the primary level all the way up to major universities are
recognizing the importance of having 100% access to their data in the event of a
local disaster. Members of the community need to know that their schools and school
districts can recover with little downtime after a major event such as a hurricane.
Deer Park ISD's choice to house their backup servers in one of Data Foundry's
premier data centers is just one example of the increasing number of schools and
school districts implementing disaster recover plans in the wake of the 2005
hurricane season,\" said Mark Noonon, VP of Data Foundry, Inc.
