Specifying
Your Requirements
Using
a data storage expert to specify your storage requirements
and the type and quantity of data you need to secure
can prevent investment in short term solutions or
inappropriate technology. They can advise you on the
type of platform you should use, the options available,
and the range of equipment suitable for the task.
They can provide you with a short seminar on data
storage strategies and options, storage/backup training,
reporting, analysis, full system specification, or
project management - whichever option best suits you.
If you are unsure of the difference between RAID Levels,
the advantages and disadvantages of hardware vs. software
based systems, the performance comparisons between
RAID levels for selection purposes, or any other general
or explicit RAID related queries, they can help clarify
the situation.
There
are specialists available to explain storage system
and availability technology in detail, and to carry
out examinations of your existing systems and recommend
suitable upgrade paths available to match your on-line
data storage system requirements. This can offer your
organisation an introduction to Fibre Channel, Storage
Area Networks, Independent and Network Attached Arrays,
Hierarchical Storage Management, and Data Migration
concepts and solutions.
No
two requirements are identical. It is vital that your
investment in data management and storage technology
is both suitable and appropriate for your environment.
Consultant & support services are ideally suited
to working with IT management and departments, network
administrators, and IT budget managers. Such services
give you the technical facts, concepts, product availability,
and a full overview of the options suitable for particular
environments without tying you to specific vendors.
Try
to avoid sales representatives masquerading as consultants
offering glossy brochures with no idea of the technology
behind them, but use highly experienced storage solution
specialists who can answer your questions personally.
Whatever your requirements, we can help you pinpoint
the weaknesses & strengths of every solution available
for your environment, and assist you in building
the higher performance and secure storage subsystem
needed.
Don't
compromise. Your businesses - and the livelihood of
the people employed there - is too important to leave
to chance.
