Managing Data Growth

Storage - the bottomless pit

Business information is the lifeblood of the organisation - and the management of data and its growth can be a major challenge. We understand that the range of different storage and backup products also presents a challenge to organisations upgrading their storage infrastructure.

Our advice on the best way forward for your environment comes from long experience in the industry. We'll not only consider the immediate storage issues but also any knock-on effects. How will your backups cope? What's the impact on your business continuity plan? Would it make more sense to take a whole new approach?

Short-cut the process of change

Choosing a storage platform can be very time-consuming. All the research and product comparisons takes effort, then negotiating with different manufacturers adds a new dimension. With our expertise in storage, combined with knowledge of all the key vendors in the space, Trustco enables you to short-cut the decision-making process.

Operational Efficiency

Consolidation... Virtualisation... Refresh?

Virtualisation stil hits the headlines but does it make sense in your environment? It could be a case of short term costs for longer term savings, or perhaps simply a server and storage refresh would be a better choice.

Objective Perspective

We can look objectively at what you've already got and what you need to achieve. We'll also consider issues like backup and business continuity - all within the requirements of your business. With a good understanding of your environment we'll be able to propose the most appropriate way forward.

Vendor-Neutral Advice

Trustco's server and storage experts are also familiar with virtualised environments, and, being vendor-neutral, will give you advice on the best approach for your infrastructure. Consolidation in some form will reduce administration costs - but what form should that consolidation take?

Maximising the value from IT

Tough Times But Business Goes On

During tough times budgets are tight, but most companies still expect their IT systems to carry on delivering and supporting the rest of the business. In fact, the more progressive companies are even looking at ways to increase their use of IT to help them get ahead during the downturn.

Infrastructure Improvement On A Budget

These periods can present an opportunity to reorganise and improve IT operations. By taking a view of what resources you already have in your infrastructure, Trustco advisors can help you to develop a plan that enables you to meet the needs of the business while reducing costs over time.

There's no magic involved in this trick - just a knowledge of what's available in the market and how best to integrate new with old.

Maximising Value

• The best technology for the job
• Pragmatic advice balancing cost and requirement
• Spending the time to identify cost-effective solutions
