Storage

Consolidation of the many “islands” of data storage that exist in the enterprise will significantly lower both the cost of storage devices but also the cost of management and maintenance of the data. Our expertise in designing storage networks will allow your applications to more efficiently share valuable hardware resources and simplify your operation, while reducing the risk of downtime to your business.

Comport’s primary engineering focus has been in providing leading edge storage solutions.  We will design and implement the best solution for your business, whether you have a single-site, homogeneous, IT infrastructure or a multi-vendor, highly distributed IT environment.  A few of the technologies we employ are:

• Storage Area Networks for FC and IP access to shared disk resources for multi-vendor, mixed-OS environments
• Tired storage solutions to consolidate data most efficiently based on its value to the business
• Shared archiving solutions to provide low cost, long term data protection of data and quick access to it as required by the business.

Consolidation of the back-up and recovery operations will also yield significant cost savings while providing a more secure data environment and a faster recovery capability.  Comport has helped customers implement the leading edge technologies for automation of the protection of your data assets. 

We can help you develop a centralized backup/recovery operation for your many distributed applications within the datacenter or across the enterprise.  Where the application cannot be taken offline for backup, we will provide solutions that allow you to protect your data without impacting the users.

Using HP solutions, Comport will help you design and implement new backup technologies, such as instant recovery from disk, virtual tape libraries, FC tape automation and “incremental forever” backups.
