The Anticipation Advantage Methodology for Storage Services

At Northstar Managed Hosting we work with you to not only provide ample storage for your current needs, we also apply our scalability foresight to anticipate your future storage needs. We collaborate with you to design a high performance and highly available storage infrastructure by defining your current storage needs and giving you options that include High-Availability storage, iSCSI vs. Fiber Channel Network, or SATA vs. Fiber Channel Disk Drives.

Once your storage systems are in place, we ensure that your environment does not experience performance bottlenecks caused by insufficient capacity. We help anticipate spikes in storage needs and manage growth by preparing migration scenarios for larger storage systems. We monitor your storage utilization and produce Aggregate Storage Usage reports, review performance metrics such as disk I/O to ensure your storage system is never the bottleneck, and monitor snapshots and data replication to make sure your data is always available.
