The modern technological landscape requires a vast exchange of information that is intensifying in complexity. An increasingly heavy database thus requires infrastructure designed for secure and scalable storage.
Redington’s new-age software, processes and architecture enable businesses to customise their data storage strategy, optimise workflow, increase flexibility and enhance operational efficiency.
Enterprise Storage
This is a centralised repository for business information that provides functions to manage, protect and share data across multiple computer systems. Direct Attached Storage, Network Attached Storage and Storage Area Network are the three types of enterprise storage available.
All-Flash
All-flash array is a storage infrastructure that functions solely on flash memory drives as opposed to spinning disk drives and offers faster, more reliable performance.
Storage Virtualisation
Storage virtualisation or cloud storage is the process of presenting all storage media in an enterprise as a single storage device by abstracting storage management software from its hardware infrastructure. This process improves storage management in a heterogeneous IT environment, enhances availability and estimation of downtime with automated management and improves storage utilisation.
Fault Tolerant Solutions
Such solutions allow a system to continue operations regardless of any component failures by using backup components that automatically activate to prevent loss of service.
Software-defined Storage
Software-defined storage allows users to separate storage software resources from their hardware counterparts to enable greater scalability, flexibility, efficiency and automation. A range of software-defined storage types in the market today include:
- i) Hypervisor-based
- ii) Container-based
- iii) Scale-out storage for unstructured data
- iv) Distributed file systems for object storage offload
- v) HCI Software
