Managed Data Storage
At Hostway we understand that data storage, business continuity and data archiving are vital to you. Organisations of all types are under increasing pressure to find cost-effective storage solutions that can cope with not just today’s, but tomorrow’s data storage requirements.
The Storage Dilemma
The factors behind the increased data storage burden are multiple. Business compliance directives from the UK government, the EU and the US (IT Governance and Compliance) mean that legally significant data must now be kept for much longer. New Data Protection regulations and an increase in what data companies must keep on file internally now also accounts for some of the increase. If we were to add email, VOIP and other digital records to the mix – it’s clear there is significant demand amongst IT Managers for flexible, fully redundant enterprise level storage, at affordable prices.
Outsourcing Your Primary Storage
Traditionally, managing a hosted primary storage network ‘in-house’ has meant a very significant capital outlay in both hardware and infratructure terms, not to mention the internal skill sets that need to be paid for. New developments such as Storage-On-Demand are opening up new possibilities. More and more businesses are turning to Hostway because we have the right partners, and the right experience to deliver high QoS Storage, but with major cost savings.
Drawing on solutions from industry leading storage provider such as Hitachi Data Systems™ and Pillar Data Systems™, our engineers can design and implement solutions based on gigabit Ethernet NAS or SAN, fully meshed and redundant fibre networks, or clustered solutions that allow for storage virtualisation, bit level replication and mirroring – all within the solution, or also across different sites. In short, there’s not much we can’t handle.
Complete Flexibility
Businesses grow and mature of course and it’s likely that your storage needs will also increase. So our primary Storage-On-Demand solution features a per gigabyte tiered storage pricing model, allowing you to only buy what you need, as well as the ability to vary the performance level of your stored data (between high performance, medium and Low/Archive) thus accomodating further cost savings or continually changing capacity requirements.
Hostway’s Managed Storage solutions are built on relationships with the best, most cost-effective storage providers in the industry.
At Hostway we pride ourselves in listening to your technical needs and working to provide you the most appropriate solution based on the discussions, for further infomation and help please call us on 0808 180 1880 (free within the UK) or +44(0)20 7538 8000, or alternatively start a conversation with us via email to solutions@hostway.co.uk
