Storage Solutions
Tiered Storage
Not all Data is created or valued equally – your storage architecture should reflect that. Different tiers of Data require different tiers of storage – you need a solution that fits your business, not a solution that you try to fit your business into. Data is being accumulated at a very large rate – whether it be for legal reasons for data (email, etc) being kept for longer periods of time, no set strategies for migrating old data, Databases, data warehouses, e-commerce – all data ever collected is kept, for trend analysis and customer profiles. Data is simply going to keep increasing, but with technologies such as Deduplication and Thin provisioning your physical storage doesn’t have to.
Backup / Archiving
The question used to be ‘How large is your backup window?’ Today that answer is zero. The question in today’s world is ‘How fast can I recover Data?’ Disk and Deduplication technologies power D2D2T solutions that let you keep much more data on much quicker media for faster recovery times, with tape still being a valuable part for longer-term retention policies and archiving.
Replication / DR
What happens when the unexpected happens? Is your company ready for any service interruption, whether man-made or natural? Today’s technologies can move incredible amounts of data efficiently, but today there is more to DR than just moving data:
- What is at risk?
- What is it worth?
- Where is it?
- How do we bring it all back up?
- Who does what?
