Cloud SAN

Your Company’s Servers are Ready for a SAN!

As your company grows, so does the amount of storage space needed. More storage means more servers, more power, more maintenance, higher chances for duplication or error, and more resources. All of which require more time and money. How can you drive up efficiency without driving up your costs as well?

Cloud Storage Area Network (Cloud SAN) gives you the ability to transfer data from one storage device to another without actually interacting with a server. By combining high speed connectivity with scalable and unlimited storage space, your business can grow without worrying about how to expand the space for your data.

How does it work?

Essentially a storage area network is the tool that is used to create a channel in which data can travel freely between various servers and the different storage devices that are being used by those servers. It acts as a dedicated high speed network that allows all the areas of storage to connect to the appropriate and necessary servers. The cloud piece of the technology is what allows you the flexibility and the customization that you’ve always wanted.

What’s in it for you?

Scale with ease. Need more or less storage space? Cloud SAN makes it easy to adjust as you go, and only pay for what you need that month.

Speed up data recovery. By eliminating a server from the equation, the process to back up data becomes faster. This features instantaneous conversion of your data into exact duplicates so you never have to worry about losing the data most precious to the functionality of your business.

Improve accessibility. Storage moves away from a server and to a place where it can be accessed by any application. This will improve the way your company purchases additional storage hardware to save money.

Be prepared. This technology is particularly popular when it comes to minimizing the risk by backing up your data and utilizing disaster recovery settings.

Customizability. Cloud can be customized in so many different ways, allowing you to obtain the features that you want specific to your business and your needs. In addition to this, cloud technology is advancing at such a rapid rate there are constantly new developments being made.

Improved performance. With Cloud SAN you are able to increase the efficiency of your business’ operations without actually causing a stop to the regular work flow taking place. Utilization is also improved by up to 40%.

Better disk utilization. The main benefit of this technology is the convenience of having your storage all in one centralized storage network and being able to manage everything of importance for your business from one location.
