The name "Mt Xia" is from a combination of experiences, cognizance of past Unix companies, and mimicking of certain shell command syntax. This firm has a large experience base with the AIX/RS6000/pSeries platforms from IBM, and we wanted to select a name which somehow reflected that experience. The name we selected was Mt Xia, which is AIXtm spelled backwards.
The firm Mt Xia is located in Norman, Oklahoma and we perform technical consulting work all over the United States and on occasion, internationally. We specialize in providing high availability, disaster recovery, and business continuity consulting services.

The Mt Xia Technical Consulting Group assists medium to large size businesses develop Information Technology strategies and solutions. We specialize in high availability, disaster recovery, and business continuity.
Mt Xia's mission is to provide our clients with a focus on business function support, instead of the more common and less effective methodology of machine oriented support. This perspective comes from decades of business and system administration experience.
Many system administration methodologies miss the point of what they are intended to provide. The point of system administration is not to ensure the computers are running, the point is to ensure the business is running.
