As Taiwan Quake Rumbles Through Global Economy, Power Loss Protection is Needed.DANBURY, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 12, 1999-- - Sure Power's On-Site High Availability Also called "RAS" (reliability, availability, serviceability) or "fault resilient," it refers to a multiprocessing system that can quickly recover from a failure. There may be a minute or two of downtime while one system switches over to another, but processing will continue. Power System Is Grid-Free; ONSI ONSI Orion Network Systems, Inc Corp. Fuel Cells Proven In 1995 Osaka Quake - The earthquake that struck Taiwan in late September caused terrible human pain and suffering, but it also dealt a severe blow to the island's economy, with the world economy already feeling the adverse ripple effects. Hsinchu Industrial Park, the premier facility for Taiwan's all-important semiconductor industry, survived the earthquake intact, but the effects of a series of tremors still play havoc with Taiwan's power supply. Without power, chip production has slowed dramatically, and even come to a standstill. Earthquakes cannot yet be predicted or prevented, but disaster-related power losses like those facing Taiwan can now be avoided. In the United States United States, officially United States of America, republic (2005 est. pop. 295,734,000), 3,539,227 sq mi (9,166,598 sq km), North America. The United States is the world's third largest country in population and the fourth largest country in area. , Sure Power Corporation's innovative on-site "high availability" power system has kept the largest privately-owned bank in the country operating its multi-million dollar credit card processing operation throughout several power outages This is a list of famous wide-scale power outages. 1965

As semiconductor manufacturers struggle with production delays caused by continuing power outages, major computer-makers in the United States are bracing for costly delays in filling orders. The potential for global economic havoc is considerable: Taiwan produces 5 percent of the world's D-Ram chips, a fundamental component for PCs. Including chip production outsourced to Taiwan by Japan, the island's share of world chip production rises to nearly 12 percent. In addition, Taiwan produces about 80% of motherboards for the world's PCs. "Business plans in today's Internet economy The Internet Economy refers to conducting business through markets whose infrastructure is based on the Internet and World-Wide Web.

"For computer-reliant businesses throughout the Pacific Rim Pacific Rim, term used to describe the nations bordering the Pacific Ocean and the island countries situated in it. In the post–World War II era, the Pacific Rim has become an increasingly important and interconnected economic region. , the lesson of Taiwan's earthquake disaster is clear: Facilities need to be blackout-proof as well as earthquake proof."
