This first step DSS, Inc. will present you with are options for which iSCSI solution best fits your needs. Secondly, we offer solutions for Wide Area Network or WAN optimization and thirdly, server consoldiation. iSCSI SAN Solutions offer data centers flexible storage pools which can be replicated, duplicated, virtualized and incorporate snapshots for backup/restore. An iSCSI SAN can be composed of a single cluster of storage nodes or multiple clusters in different locations. iSCSI storage offers virtualized environments simplified deployment, comprehensive storage management and continuous data protection. DSS, Inc. offers iSCSI Storage platforms to meet every capacity requirement as well as storage application. Modern Ethernet is used in many ways that the standard's originators never envisioned. As a result, even gigabit Ethernet needs some tweaking for best performance in applications like iSCSI SAN. Our WAN Optimization solutions are designed to increase the overall performance of your network and reduce bottlenecks. DSS, Inc. offers the Riverbed family of WAN optimization solutions. Riverbed solutions increase application acceleration, enabling IT consolidation, and providing enterprise-wide network and application visibility – all while eliminating the need to increase bandwidth, storage or servers. Perhaps the biggest reason for the growth in iSCSI installations is in the area of Server Consolidation and Data Replication. Over the past five years many organizations have specifically deployed VMware infrastructure software on industry standard systems to significantly reduce their hardware, data center, and operational costs--many report 70-80% cost savings, and 3-6 month ROI periods--while achieving unexpected gains in operational flexibility, efficiency, and agility. As part of our solution, DSS, Inc. offers on-site installation and can provide the service of deploying, VMware Infrastructure Software as well as the WAN Optimizer. The end result is a cost effective, rock solid method for protecting your organizations data.
