Frequent downtime
CHALLENGE #9
FREQUENT DOWNTIME
How much revenue stands to be lost if your network, the server or primary storage system goes down in the middle of the day?
Does your system keep going down?
One of the biggest frustrations in offices today is network downtime. Downtime can have many flavors, from small system hiccups, frequent loss of connectivity to whole hours of computer and network interruption. Being productive relies on having programs be always ready, willing and able to respond. Any interruption leads to loss of productivity and loss of revenue.
As your network goes down, losses go up…
We live in a world where “always on” has become the new standard. IT departments are struggling to meet these high standards of service. The five 9’s” (99.999%) approach to uptime is no longer sufficient.
To stay up and running, systems require monitoring, security, system updates and firmware upgrades. Often these updates are an involved process that require planned outage windows and overtime dollars to complete. If the update is not planned, companies face added downtime during critical business hours that can kill productivity and profitability.
Ready to counter frequent downtime and network issues?
The old fashioned approach to application delivery (one application on one physical piece of hardware) gave way the first wave of virtualization. Yet, even virtualization is no longer enough to keep today’s busy network applications consistently online.
If you are experiencing frequent downtime, it may be time to evolve your network. A resilient datacenter is a solution that can withstand failure at every level. By leveraging technologies like vMotion, virtual storage and Application Centric Infrastructure, your organization can achieve the coveted 100% uptime goal.
The first step is to talk to a technology professional about the specific issues you are experiencing. Technology firms like i-Tech Support, can help you identify key sources of issues explore solutions. Consider an investment in your product line that will contribute to your network productivity. Performance product lines like VMware, Cisco and NetApp have a higher quality standard to ensure you have an agile technology delivery structure, that keeps your downtime down.
