The Involta management team has worked together for over 20 years as partners and coworkers.  The evolution of Involta began with the founding Technology Resources Company in 1998.  CoVault Technology was founded in early 2006 in Cedar Rapids, Iowa.  Involta was formed in 2007 through the merger of Technology Resources Company and CoVault Technology, LLC. The combination of CoVault, the only collocation data center company in the Cedar Rapids/Iowa City corridor, with the data management expertise of TRC creates a company that can both house and provide support for customers’ increasingly critical data infrastructure.  The combined companies provide both the physical facilities and technical expertise necessary to secure data and provide disaster recovery services for businesses’ critical data infrastructure.
