Storage infrastructure

 

Consolidated storage infrastructure - a set of hardware and software tools that allow organizations to combine data into a single system and maintain centralized management of information throughout the life cycle. The main components of the infrastructure are the network storage, disk storage systems (NAS), tape libraries and specialized software.

Storage infrastructure allows us to solve a wide range of tasks:

  •         centralization of IT infrastructure for better management
  •         Reduction of total IT costs while improving the quality of service (SLA)
  •         manage growing volumes of data on servers
  •         To ensure the necessary application performance
  •         optimal use of hardware platforms, local storage locations
  •         Fault Tolerance and Scalability
  •         Backup and Archiving


Our company has extensive experience in the design and construction of storage infrastructure implementation of tiered storage, solving the problems of storage consolidation and virtualization.

Tiered storage

 

Depending on the frequency of use, data is normally distributed between the three levels of storage, gradually moving poorly utilized information on less productive, but cheaper media.

The first level - the so-called level of performance or Performance Tier - form data that are accessed often, so access to them must be carried out as quickly as possible. Usually this level form the primary sources of information located on the high-performance, high-availability disk arrays or disks. The second level - the level of capacity, Capacity Tier - implemented using cheaper disk storage / disk and provides higher capacity at a lower performance. The third level - the level of archiving, Archive Tier - designed for long-term storage of inactive data and is built on the basis of tape libraries and optical drives. For automatic migration of data between tiers, as well as for the management of access to data regardless of their storage meets the appropriate software.

Our company works with leading manufacturers of tiered storage systems Hitachi Data System, EMC, IBM.

Virtualization storage environment

 

Creating a virtual system that unites the disparate field of memory and storage systems from different vendors, abstracts the level of physical systems and drives, to simplify the management of complex and heterogeneous architecture platforms.

Virtualization simplifies maintenance and storage helps to solve the following problems:

  •         connecting and configuring new servers
  •         more disk space, planned maintenance or upgrade storage without long shutdown servers
  •         To ensure the necessary performance, including through the distribution of the disk space used in parallel across multiple disk systems ("striping")
  •         migration of data between storage systems without disruption of services responsible for providing data
  •         replication of data for disaster recovery storage systems


Storage consolidation

Scattered disk resources within the same data center can be consolidated into a single pool. This association not only speeds up data access, provides scaling and simplifies data protection, but also allows for additional functionality, such as data deduplication.

Our company carries out the consolidation of data on storage devices to block access and connection through the SAN (Storage Area Network, SAN), and the storage devices with a direct connection to the data network (Network Attached Storage, NAS). To manage the storage system uses software platforms leading vendors: IBM SVC, HP XP, HDS USP, EMC Invista.

In addition to the introduction of the storage infrastructure "Leading Technology" offers the following solutions:

  •         ensure business continuity
  •         archiving
  •         building support systems virtualization and cloud computing
  •         infrastructure management


Storage infrastructure required by companies whose activities require the storage of large amounts of data, or whose income depends on the ability to provide fast access to data. First of all, it is the company's financial sector, telecom, government agencies and large industrial holdings.
