Storage needs are growing at an alarming rate. Developing a proper storage plan requires experience and constant comprimise between cost, capacity and performance. eSilo's storage expertise can create sound and cost-effective storage solutions based on our years of experience in the industry. Our engineers are constanly testing, installing or reading

about the latest storage systems. Discovering and implementing the right architecture can simplify data administration, improve the reliability and the performance of your network and reduce spending.

Storage is one of those things that when "done right", can be of great value to your organization. Before making any decisions or changes, eSilo begins by finding answers to a list of questions. Some of those questions are:

• What systems currently exist and how are they used?
• What is the administrative and maintainence overhead?
• Excluding backups, is data duplicated for external system integration?
• Where is capacity more important than performance?
• With the apporpriate credentials, can any file be accessed from any location?
• What plans are in place for storage growth, how will you expand?
• How much data resides on employee workstations, escaping daily backups?

Whether the answer is high capacity low-cost storage, high performance storage or more often a combination of the two, eSilo can design to spec. Furnishing you with realistic deployment time frames and detailed proposals, we work with you onsite to iron out migration, installation and configuration issues.
