Technology basics

What is Storage?

The heart of your business is your data.

Emails, financial records, customer records, vendor records, product designs, contracts, digital photos, designs, scanned documents these all make up the lifeblood of your business in form of data. It represents the collective investment of time, money and hard work that is your business.

And the risk of losing this important data is always present, whether a failed hard drive, viruses, ransomware or simply human error. Also consider the possibility of data theft or wrong action by unsatisfied, mischievous employee.

Securing up your data is an essential requirement of survival in the modern business world.

But securing up your business data is only half of the solution. Additionally, you need to have a plan in place for how you are going to recover that data. This will not happen unless you have central repository called DATA STORAGE APPLIANCE.

What is GANSAN role in storage implementation ?
  • Sizing.
  • Suggesting right model based on the inputs from customer.
  • Onsite Installation and support.
  • Administrative hands on training during implementation.
How much capacity of Data Storage we need ?

Totally depends on your data your organisation has. As such there is no bar on total capacity.

Whether replication Server is must ? Whether the data is replication in auto mode ?

If you feel that data stored on storage server is critical , we recommend to have a local or remote replication server. Once properly set, all the snapshots are replicated on replication server without any human intervention.

Will we get any notification if some thing goes wrong ?

If smtp details are available, and if the server is connected to Internet, we can configure auto notifications. Any failure, the storage server will create an email and the same will be sent to you.

Will it support the Virtualisation ?

Yes, storage will support even for the virtualisation environment as well as it has NFS & ISCSI protocols.

What happens in case of any power outage ?

We normally suggest appropriate power conditioning in form of UPS. Even if UPS is not available, nothing should happen. As the firmware and data disks are separate, and the file system is copy-on-write feature, no data corruption can take place.

What type of Hard Disks are suggested ?

Any brand of Hard disks either specifically made for NAS /Enterprise hard disks are okay. Sata Drives must be with CMR technology. Cheap SMR hard disks are not supported and if used, in the event of HDD failures, data recovery is next to impossible. You are warned.

Will the storage server integrate with existing Microsoft AD environment ?

Yes …
