Data Storage

Storage Area Networking (SAN)

At Cyberconsult we successfully implement a range of storage technologies from the world’s leading vendors. We have experience with storage solution companies such as HP and EMC.

The use of their technologies allows us to design and deliver leading solutions for data back-up, recovery and security.

Storage area networks (SANs) provide a fast, reliable and scalable block-storage solution environment for large volumes of data and are ideal for business-critical and high-bandwidth needs. Technologies such as iSCSI, FCoE and others provide enterprise-class connectivity to your data and greater network performance, improving both access and recovery times and overall infrastructure uptime.

For the past 10 years, we have completed multiple successful projects related with SAN implementation for public organisations, the healthcare sector and small to medium sized businesses.

For high performance low latency needs we can design and implement storage solutions based on Flash Storage technologies with a high speed backbone connectivity.

Capabilities:

  • High-speed access
  • Server consolidation & virtualisation
  • Improved disaster recovery
  • Scalability
  • Simplified data management

Software Defined Storage (SDS)

Cyberconsult can help with the implementation of your datacentre with Software Defined Storage solutions based on industry standard servers and platforms like VMware vSAN, Microsoft Server 2016 Spaces Direct and others.

SDS manages policy-based provisioning and management of data storage independent of the hardware. This is a cost saving linear processing to storage IOPS solution which helps us to build software defined data centres, usually based on hypervisor clusters.

Capabilities:
  • Linear processing to storage performance
  • Simplifies procurement and deployment
  • Easy maintenance (no storage expert required on board)
  • Cheap caching using NVMe drives and Flash accelerators - up to 5M+ IOPS and 160Gbit/s+ throughput
  • Fault tolerance
  • Scalability (Microsoft Spaces Direct is limited to 16 servers)
  • Data deduplication, replication, thin provisioning, backup and snapshots

  • Enterprise Direct Attached Storage & Network Direct Attached Storage (DAS & NDAS)

    Storage class designed for customers with requirements for high speed storage solution attached to single or dual servers or workstations. Direct Attached Storage is part of the storage infrastructure and is a “in-the-middle” cost effective solution for companies with growing needs whose servers require quick access to a high volume of data. With DAS you can have a performance close to Storage Area Network but without business critical solutions like clustering, replication services, advanced security, etc. DAS stays in the middle between block storage and file storage solution.

    Capabilities

    • High-speed access
    • Virtualisation
    • Possible Scalability
    • Single/Dual Client access (depending on vendor and class)

    Network Attached Storage (NAS)

    We successfully implement cost effective entry level “Network Area Solutions” based on vendors like QNAP, SYNOLOGY, ADAPTEC. They provide an essential level of expansion capabilities, redundancy, backup, synchronization between your branches, remote access including basic cloud services and integration with technologies such as active directories, radius, etc. Enterprise class NAS is a file storage solution with an optional block storage solution.
