§ 01OVERVIEW
Buying hardware is more than drawing up a purchase list. A poorly chosen storage array causes no trouble in year one; it surfaces in year three, when capacity runs out and expansion cannot wait.
We size server, storage and backup hardware against the actual workload, take on installation and commissioning, and follow warranty and maintenance. We work vendor independently and base recommendations on measurements.
