Storage Transformation Starts Here...
Tectrade is a specialist storage integrator that offers a fundamentally different approach. We have developed a highly innovative methodology that helps organisations address their immediate storage and data infrastructure requirements but also transition their storage environment to meet future needs.
Tectrade delivers both tactical and strategic storage solutions using an innovative discovery methodology, underpinned by a set of core architecture goals and delivering clear and measurable benefits.
Central to Tectrade's approach is the identification of measureable proof points, agreed with the customer and critical to the success of the project. These provide the fundamental performance measures for the whole engagement process, from design through to deployment and support.
There is increasing commoditisation of storage hardware and software. The main storage vendors all have products that address the most common requirements of the storage environment. However, a consequence of falling prices and rapidly rising data volumes has been ad-hoc acquisition and a preference for low cost hardware over more expensive but intelligent storage.
Typical issues arising from first generation storage development are:
Increasing complexity
Slow response to new business projects
Increasing management time
Long and unreliable backup and recovery
Poor utilisation
Inactive and low value data residing on expensive disk
Increasing power and space requirements
Solution Goals
Proven, consolidated, simplified storage environments with the tools to make management easier
Provide a tiered storage model and service catalogue delivering differentiated service levels and cost to the business
Deliver immediate cost reduction through a new tiered commercial model
Incorporate dynamic provisioning of the storage infrastructure to improve service and reduce the time to market for new projects
Improved Business Continuity
Improved Disaster Recovery capability
Improve service through reduced problems and faster fix times
Deliver best practice process and procedures
