Storage Area Network (SAN)TeamNRG is named Left Hand Networks regional partner! Storage Area Networking is quickly becoming a feasible technology for the small to medium business market! Left Hand Networks, a pioneer in the iSCI SAN marketplace has named TeamNRG.com as its official partner in Southern California. IT Project Solutions Tight budgets regulate IT spending in most organizations. But when the time comes to expand to remote offices or to overhaul an aging IT infrastructure, you want the most technologically advanced solution available. LeftHand Networks’ integrated storage systems, with built-in, comprehensive SAN management software, deliver exceptional data availability. Our full-featured storage solutions simplify day-to-day management, and offer maximum protection against any sort of business outage.
Disaster Recovery In the wake of recent floods, hurricanes, and other natural disasters worldwide, disaster recovery is top of mind for many IT departments. Startling statistics tell you why: companies denied access to mission-critical data for as little as 2-3 days will likely not be around next year. To mitigate that risk, SAN administrators have traditionally resorted to implementing two separate but identical storage systems, mirroring the entire site to guarantee redundancy of their data, and at the same time doubling software licenses, hardware costs and management time. Though these businesses might be well protected, the cost of building, maintaining and growing parallel systems can be exorbitant. LeftHand provides you with a more flexible, efficient alternative: a single, high availability SAN with built-in disaster recovery features that allow for more granular data protection. You decide exactly what data you need to protect without costly duplication of your primary site SAN. You manage your entire storage network, within a building or across multiple sites, through a central console. So if one site meets with disaster, you can get your data back online quickly using intuitive failover and failback operations. Every LeftHand SAN contains a powerful, built-in set of space-efficient tools:
Storage Virtualization Server virtualization is helping businesses consolidate hardware resources and build out robust, highly available infrastructures. To get the most out of your existing resources and ensure business continuity in the data center, you also need to deploy storage virtualization. Learn how LeftHand's virtual storage systems deliver continuous access to your data. Optimize Your SAN for High Availability and DR For existing LeftHand customers, the SAN/iQ Multi-Site HA/DR Solution Pack provides high availability and fault-tolerant capabilities in multi-site environments. This solution pack automates system tasks and reduces SAN management costs. Business Continuance As business transactions around the world increase in speed and quantity, the amount of data that must be kept continually available increases along with them. Reliable data protection is critical to a healthy bottom line. Even day-to-day problems like server failures, smoke or water damage, and human error can lead to devastating data loss. Easy to deploy and maintain, LeftHand SANs ensure that your crucial business data remains available. Our NSM storage systems provide unique double fault protection within each node and across the entire SAN, reducing your vulnerability without driving up costs the way traditional SANs can. To achieve the scalability required for such rapidly growing databases, a storage network solution must be pro-active and automated, able to scale at the first signs of growth, and LeftHand SANs are ready. No matter what size SAN you choose to deploy, our patented architecture allows you to create the right data protection solution for your company today, and develop your SAN in any way that makes sense for your business. LeftHand SAN solutions protect your data in a number of ways:
With a LeftHand iSCSI SAN, you have unmatched flexibility and a rapid return on your investment. Our solutions provide you with a choice of SAN platforms, allowing you to select the right capacity and performance functionality for each environment you maintain. And NSM storage nodes can be distributed within a building or across a campus using standard Gigabit Ethernet networks, providing high availability without the costly duplicate storage network used in many legacy environments. Data Center Virtualization Enterprise IT organizations face increasing business pressures as data volumes continue to grow. Server consolidation, disk capacity and CPU resource management, disaster recovery/data protection, and a general need to reduce costs have all compelled companies to embrace virtualization as a remedy. Virtualization helps businesses make the most of their existing resources. Organizations that used to rely on a single physical resource in each office, such as a hard disk with a few terabytes of capacity, can now pool those individual resources together into a larger “virtual” hard disk providing hundreds of terabytes of disk space. The disk space that went unused in less data-intensive departments is freed up through virtualization for other departments to use, without the purchase of additional hardware. Businesses that deploy server virtualization alone, however, are tackling only half of the problem. A well-planned and well-executed strategy encompasses both server virtualization and storage virtualization. Server Virtualization allows you to:
Storage Virtualization enhances data availability for virtualized servers, so that you can:
An open ISCSI SAN from LeftHand allows you to gain continuous access to underlying storage, clone storage volumes and more. |
