By combining our comprehensive expertise with proven and structured processes, we are able to deliver consistent and exemplary results that help improve and enhance your business operations.
Our offerings center around four core business needs:
Networking
Today's networking technologies are complex and costly if not implemented correctly. But they are essential to improving network efficiency and overall business performance.
OSS can help you select from this array of new technologies and deploy them to your greatest advantage. Our technical expertise extends from complex data networks to advanced infrastructures incorporating wireless technologies, converged networks, and storage networks. Everything you need to seamlessly connect employees, partners and customers, increase productivity, improve network management and reduce expenses.
OSS can help you improve the performance and resiliency of your existing network while reducing overall costs. With our track record of success and in-depth knowledge of complex, multi-vendor IP data networks that include WAN, LAN and remote access, we can help you increase throughput, lower latency, and simplify management while reducing the total cost of ownership.
Our Network Infrastructure services offer total network engineering solutions for WAN, LAN and remote access that address specific customer needs throughout the entire network lifecycle.
Storage
It is unusual to find a company that has not experienced significant data growth in recent years - and the costs go with it! Industry estimates suggest that for every dollar spent on storage hardware, companies spend at least three on managing it.
Storage is important but companies seldom know how to build a fit for purpose storage environment that is both reliable and cost effective. This is not helped by the confusing jargon used by hardware and software vendors, who frequently use the same terms in different ways. And once you have stored the data what about the backups? If you've got a backup are you sure you can perform a restore?
The challenge is not only which storage technology to deploy from a bewildering number of products, but also what to deploy that will integrate well in the existing infrastructure and maximize asset utilization, getting the best return from both new and existing investments.
OSS can help. We are a truly independent, product agnostic, organization. By examining business requirements, analyzing existing infrastructure and interviewing and considering the needs of all stakeholders, including end users, we can help you select solutions which deliver immediate bottom-line returns and substantial future savings with often neutral investments.
We offer solutions in the following areas:
- Storage Architecture Planning
- Storage Optimization
- Storage Backup and Recovery
- Storage Systems Deployment
Disaster Recovery
Traditionally, many organizations do not have good disaster recovery facilities due to the perceived costs. Even organizations that already have multiple sites seldom have a consistent, reliable means of protecting their data from natural or man-made disasters.
Many companies use the "off-site tape" method, sending a backup copy of critical data offsite every night. In the event of a disaster, recovery involves setting up the necessary IT infrastructure & restoring from tape – not to mention the loss of all data changes since the backup was performed. Anybody who has restored a single critical server from backup tapes will know this can take hours or days. In a disaster recovery situation, you may have to recover 10, 50 or more servers at the same time – with the business losing more money each successive hour. In real terms this will frequently result in the company going out of business.
Perceived cost? Think about what affect the loss of that data will have on your business.
OSS has been recommending Disaster Recovery solutions to our clients. Our consultants have hands-on experience in many environments within many markets and can devise a cost effective Disaster Recovery Solution to suit your requirements. Our solutions will replicate all critical data from your servers to your secure location offsite continually updating this data 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. In the event of a disaster, this data can be accessed quickly & easily with little or no reconfiguration, using the fail over tools contained within our solution.
