The combination of high quality IBM FlashSystem disk arrays and the experience of eGroup Solutions will ensure that any application will run quickly and without downtime.
How to significantly speed up all business applications? One way is to choose the right, fast data storage. In this article, we'll show you how to use IBM FlashSystem disk arrays to help your business.
Significant acceleration
Thanks to the use of SSD or flash memory, it is possible to significantly speed up any common server application working in real time - web or portal applications of all kinds, aplications using elements of artificial intelligence, as well as all database, ERP and CRM applications.
The difference can be huge. Experience shows that after replacing conventional rotary disk systems with flash memory, the time to perform I/O operations can be reduced, from 2,5 to 3 milliseconds (ms) to hundreds of microseconds.
„The difference is most visible in applications with thousands of clients simultaneously accessing the same data or in general in applications demanding reading and writing data," says Stanislav Dzúrik from IBM Slovakia about the benefits of the flash system.
The use of flash memory is definitely a step to reduce the risk of data loss when storing data. Unlike rotating discs, they do not have rotating parts or moving heads above the recording medium, the failure of which usually caused the failure of these discs.
Professional care without downtimes
In order for the IT infrastructure to perform the required tasks, it must be properly designed, properly implemented and operated with sufficient professional care. This requires many years of experience, constant monitoring of trends and training in individual technological areas. This is what eGroup Solutions, IBM's platinum partner, excels at.
eGroup Solutions brings its customers a concept called Zero Downtime. In one package, you get everything you need for the smooth running of the infrastructure - from its professional design, through professional operation, above-standard support and additional services. The aim is to ensure a well-functioning infrastructure that will run without downtime.
"Thanks to our many years of experience with the design, implementation and operation of solutions, we create comfort and peace of mind for the customer's work, because we solve all the activities and stresses associated with the operation of IT for them, or together with them," explains Rudolf Bohuš from eGroup Solutions.
The recipe for success
The recipe for a fast and well-functioning IT infrastructure is a combination of IBM FlashSystem disk arrays and the experience of eGroup Solutions. This will significantly speed up any server applications and reduce the risk of costly downtimes to a minimum.
