Information Lifecycle Management

As data storage growth continues to rise, companies are looking for more effective ways to manage that data. Information lifecycle management (ILM) helps support initiatives through the implementation of automated procedures to move data to appropriate storage levels based on pre-set criteria.

ILM solutions from MSI help organizations of any size and in any industry solve these challenges. Businesses are able to prioritize data into separate tiers by aligning business needs with IT service levels. These tiers of data are associated with their level of importance, based on criteria set by you. Once implemented, an ILM solution automatically moves data between tiers, and more or less expensive storage, based on that criterion.

Storage Management

Within heterogeneous storage environments, utilization rates are generally lower than anticipated, the management of disparate platforms can be time consuming and difficult, and administrator productivity is hindered. Storage management solutions from MSI allow IT organizations to be proactive in maintaining ever-growing storage resources. Management software, tools and hardware can provide a simplified view of a storage infrastructure to help organize data more efficiently, maximize asset utilization, increase staff productivity and quickly meet on demand business requirements.

Data Migration Services

Important data needs to be backed-up or migrated to different or new storage. Today’s heterogeneous IT environments mean there are a number of networks, servers, management technologies, operating systems and other devices that make data migration a labor-intensive and intricate operation. These migrations involve several outages for downtime, which increase the possibility of data corruption and lost data. Scheduling downtime can even become a tedious undertaking.

Data migration services from MSI Systems Integrators help alleviate the stress and cost associated with moving data from one form of storage to another. Our data migration service provides a minimally intrusive, seamless data migration. The service is transparent to the host and incumbent storage while migrating information in the background. MSI also provides project management in terms of planning and execution to provide the smoothest possible transition to new storage subsystems.
