STORAGE SYSTEMS AVAILABLE

  • STORAGE AREA NETWORKS (SAN)

    An IT storage solution area is a dedicated network that provides access to consolidated, block level data storage. SANs are primarily used to make storage devices, such as disk arrays, tape libraries, and optical jukeboxes, accessible to servers so that the devices appear like locally attached devices to the operating system.

Cybernetics Storage

Cybernetics is primarily a data storage solution company.  They provide a wide array of fantastic products to help make certain your data is stored safely and can be accessed seamlessly.

Your business is constantly growing, and your data storage needs increase all the time. It’s easy to think too far ahead and purchase way more than you need. This is a problem because technology changes and prices come down. If you buy too much storage, it’s like having unused inventory on the shelf year after year. We can help you analyze your current storage situation and plan for growth.

Cybernetics offers so many great choices so you can get a system that is right for you. If you already have Cybernetics storage, we can help configure your network so it works as efficiently as possible.

Open-E Data Storage – DSS

Open-E Data Storage Software V7 is a Linux-based data storage software used for building and managing centralized data storage servers – NAS and SAN.

If you are considering expanding your storage then give us a call and our technicians will analyze your current system and determine if OpenE Storage options are a viable solution for your business. We’ll plan out the upgrade and install the storage with the proper configurations for your unique needs. By allowing us to install and configure your OpenE storage solution we’ll minimize downtime and ensure things work properly the first time.

  • NETWORK ATTACHED STORAGE (NAS) DEVICES

    Network-attached computer storage is file-level computer storage connected to a computer network, providing data access to heterogeneous clients. NAS not only operates as a file server, but it is specialized for this task either by its hardware, software, or configuration of those elements.

    NAS is often made as a computer appliance – a specialized computer built from the ground as an IT storage solution – rather than simply a general purpose computer being used for the role. NAS is convenient and gaining in popularity.

  • MICROSOFT WINDOWS STORAGE SERVERS

    Windows Storage Server 2003, a part of the Windows Server 2003 series, is a specialized IT storage solution server operating system for Network Attached Storage. It is optimized for use in file and print sharing and also in computer Storage Area Network scenarios.

    A computer storage solution that’s built by Microsoft for Windows has advantages. Let us help you decide if this is the right IT storage solution for you.

  • SAN REPLICATION FUNCTIONALITY

    Active, real-time storage replication is an IT storage solution usually implemented by distributing updates of a block device to several physical hard disks. This way, any file system supported by the operating system can be replicated without modification, as the file system code works on a level above the block device driver layer.

    This computer storage solution is implemented either in hardware by a disk array controller or in software by a device driver.

  • NETWORK BACKUP

    In addition to storing your data, it’s vitally important to backup that data. If disaster strikes and your primary storage server fails, there can be no doubt as to your ability to recover the data.

    We’re strong believers in backing up your data. If you aren’t backing up daily, your data isn’t safe. We can help devise a backup solution based on your specific needs. Call today to find out more – 314.333.3330.
