Data Center & Hybrid IT Solutions
It can seem like the world is moving to the cloud, but not every process or workload belongs there. Many businesses still need to maintain some on-premises infrastructure for computing, storage, or backup.
Add in hybrid options, and you have a nearly infinite range of ways to structure your data center. Whatever hybrid IT looks like for you, we can help design and implement the ideal solution.
The Rise — and Range — of Subscription Models
As cloud IT has become ubiquitous, providers have experimented with subscription models to give their customers flexibility and scalability. Cloud computing and storage vendors are leading the way with consumption-based and service-based plans, but even on-prem IT vendors are offering subscription options.
This is more than a trend; it’s an evolution of the market. Subscription-based network, platform, and hardware solutions have become a promising part of IT planning.
Data Center Solutions
Primary and secondary storage, computing power, hardware needs — data centers and hybrid IT solutions bring together a lot of elements, and every organization has different needs. Let’s explore some of your options.
Primary Storage Solutions
How you should handle primary storage depends on the type of data you’re storing and how it’s used.
Working collaboratively? Network-attached storage (NAS) acts as a shared drive for files that need to be accessed and updated by multiple people on your network.
Operating a large, dynamic database? A storage area network (SAN), a.k.a. block storage, delivers a network of hard drives for peak performance when you need to read and write lots of data at once.
Utilizing Git for version control? With object storage, your developers can add, modify, and remove files with just a few lines of code.
Whatever the scenario, we’d love to talk about the primary storage system that best suits your data.
Secondary Storage Solutions
Secondary storage is all about security. Your backups and storage redundancies are an essential part of protecting your business, from disaster recovery planning to incident response.
But there are lots of things to consider — cost, accessibility, security features, and the types and characteristics of the data itself. To get the most out of your investment, choose secondary storage solutions that enhance your security measures and the other aspects of your IT.
Computing Solutions
Cloud computing, much like cloud storage, includes a range of solutions for use cases — but whatever the requirements are, we’re deeply familiar with the tools to address them.
Platforms like SimpliVity from Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) provide hyper-simple and hyper-scalable tools for combining your IT infrastructure and data services into a single, affordable, integrated solution.
Need something a little more customized? Let’s discuss what the right cloud computing solution looks like for your business.
Hardware As A Service
Do you need some on-premises infrastructure but want to avoid the full cost and maintenance burden of the hardware assets you need?
Hardware as a service is the ideal solution for lots of organizations, including companies that are growing quickly and unsure what their long-term hardware needs will be.
Reach out to talk more about a solution for on-prem hardware that can scale up and down more easily, with predictable cost and built-in maintenance.
