Storage as a Service

 

Rapid deployment of scalable secure Cloud based storage service

As data volumes grow and the ability to handle various file formats becomes more complex, supporting efficient and cost-effective access to data can be increasingly difficult with users experiencing reduced performance and outages. 

Traditional approaches to storage entail capital investment and/or technical resources to implement and maintain their own storage infrastructure.  While traditional solutions may offer simplicity they can lack the crucial scalability to expand the storage space to serve large end-user communities.

Northgate's Storage as a Service

Designed for affordability and efficiency a flexible storage Cloud solution from Northgate can optimise organisations available storage capacity, enabling fast, easy access to storage where and when required.

Northgate’s Storage as a Service offers a storage-virtualisation solution designed to support your storage optimisation efforts. It can help alleviate data storage challenges by enabling rapid implementation of a scalable storage system with flexibility in deployment and management.

The solution provides:

  • Virtualised storage to enable storage and server consolidation.
  • Unified management platform to help reduce outages and storage management, labour demands and costs,
  • Advanced data replication for cost-effective business continuity and disaster recovery.
  • Our solution streamlines and consolidates the management of various file storage devices, helping to eliminate fragmentation, improve storage and server platform utilisation and lower your total cost of owner-ship (TCO). Advanced data replication options, such as snapshot and mirroring, help enhance your disaster recovery capabilities at reduced costs.

Benefits of Northgate's Storage as a Service

Northgate’s Storage as a Service will provide the following benefits compared to having an in-house solution:

  • Eliminate capital costs associated with buying, managing, hosting and maintaining storage. The overall cost of ownership is significantly reduced and service levels improve.
  • The typical risks and constraints around migrating to a central storage platform are eliminated allowing organisations to achieve the benefits faster.
  • By moving critical data to the Storage platform, you can easily achieve 99.99% uptime or higher without the typical price associated.
  • Organisations can plan for change without the normal concerns over wasted investments, secure in the knowledge that the service is always available.
  • Organisations can mitigate risk and achieve higher levels of security without the cost or pain associated with self certification server platform utilisation and lower total cost of owner-ship (TCO). Advanced data replication options, such as snapshot and mirroring, help enhance disaster recovery capabilities at reduced costs.
