Storage Device Support
Overview
- Support, maintenance, configuration of physical, virtual and cloud-based storage devices.
- Review and analyze issues with hard drives
Why Does This Matter?
Data storage solutions can be complex in their configuration, technologies they utilize, and level of expertise needed to support them. Data is at the heart of an organization’s operation and, combined with the health of the associated servers, its availability is critical to all related systems
What Value Does This Add?
Having skilled, experienced Engineers properly supporting storage devices equates to having data available when the needed. Properly supporting storage devices increases their longevity and reduces the amount of time needed to address issues as they arise
Common Problems
Drive space issues, running out of space, disk corruption, drive failures, data availability, data corruption, data retrieval performance issues
Why Is A Solution Needed?
Storage technologies are similar to most other infrastructure technologies, they require regular support to ensure their viability. The Black Line team addresses storage technology issues, or makes regular adjustments, to keep these technologies operating as intended.
What To Expect
Business Leaders can expect
Storage technologies are much more complex than end-user technologies. They require more training and experience so a Client can be confident that only skilled, trained, experienced Engineer’s will be supporting and managing these critical technologies.
Business Leaders can expect their storage devices to be ready for business, have appropriate work performed to maintain availability and be configured to provide the highest level of data protection
In addition, Business Leaders can expect enough data storage will keep pace with growth, accessible where needed and protected against unforeseen failures
End Users can expect
End-users can expect available storage when working with their business systems. Drive space will be there when needed, adjusted to keep pace with growth and protected against failure. Including unforeseen issues like corruption and unintentional deletions
