Frequently Asked Questions

SAN or NAS — which do we need?

SAN (block) suits databases and virtualization requiring low latency and high availability; NAS (file) suits shared files and backups. Many organizations use both. We help you choose per workload.

Which SAN vendor do you recommend?

We are vendor-neutral and recommend based on your performance, availability, and budget — across Dell, HPE, Pure Storage, NetApp, and others.

Can you ensure zero-downtime operation?

We design dual-controller, fully-redundant SANs so component failures do not interrupt access. We also design the replication strategy for site resilience.
