Storage Optimization Consulting
Through a unique resiliencey and availability perspective, our experts help you improve operational efficiency through a five-step program that pinpoints and optimizes actual storage capacity, allocation and use:
Our program begins with a Usage and Capacity Assessment that examines how your storage resources are used today. This step also evaluates your capacity to recover the stored data in the face of an emergency.
The second stage of the process includes a Classification Assessment, helping your IT organization tier the data effectively. This exercise will ensure that operational activities such as backup can fully support your critical information management and recovery priorities.
Following the Classification Assessment, SunGard storage experts examine your Performance Architecture, placing special emphasis on the security of your data – protecting it from the numerous threats that can disrupt IT environments today.
Keeping your data architecture performing optimally is the underlying goal of the Archiving and Compliance program. Logically connected, compliance standards call for a lifecycle approach to protecting your data, and performance can only be optimized when archived data is managed on the right technology, providing access when needed and cost efficiency every day.
Finally, once an optimized storage architecture and operational procedures have been put in place, SunGard Consulting experts conduct periodic Process Audits, helping you to ensure that achieved efficiencies are being maintained as your business grows.
