Steve Lewis is CEO of Dataprise.

“I suspect my day was like so many others — watching the events unfold with fear and sadness, but also uplifted by how our country came together as one. I’m grateful that my family, friends and colleagues were so fortunate when so many others were not.”

“Today my stepson is a firefighter / paramedic and runs into burning buildings and saves lives on a regular basis. The truly remarkable aspect of 9/11 was the first responders– police, fire, medical personnel and other heroes — who stepped, up and with no thought of personal safety went to work to save lives.”

“9/11 provided a key impetus to remote managed services providing clear illustration to all the benefits of having redundant distributed infrastructure that could be remotely managed. In these respects, I’d suggest that 9/11 had a profound impact on shaping IT topology as we know it.”

“But in the end, my takeaway is deep sorrow for the lives that were lost and tremendous admiration for America’s first responders.”
