High Performance SAN File Systems

Alliance Integrated Technology delivers high-performance integrated Storage Area Networks (SANs) solutions with services from concept design through support.  Our expertise spans the data center, ensuring IT strategies and tactics are perfectly aligned with business needs.  We design, implement, and support each solution with the best-available hardware and software from the leading names in information technology.

As an IT organization provides access or communication of their data from the storage level to the server level, SANs have become an important “communication life line” within every organization, and are now a major component in the storage networking structure.  In today’s environment, the SAN is a major component of the overall network of computing resources for the data center.

Our SAN Systems Provide High-speed Solutions for a Low-cost Investment

Our teams have a superior track record of deploying long-term SAN solutions to help resolve some of the most complex problems facing scientists, researchers, and corporate IT management.  These cost-effective solutions have enabled our customers to shorten the development cycle through high-speed data sharing.

AllianceIT SAN file systems provide state-of-the-art features and benefits, including:

• Managed Services
• High-speed data sharing dramatically boosts I/O performance and enables faster project completion (gains of 2x, 3x, and more are common)
• Heterogeneous data sharing among the broadest range of OS platforms enables greater collaboration and fewer delays
• Online expansion of storage capacity and disk array swap-outs simplifies service and upgrade processes
• Integrated data protection and integrity checks safeguard data both on-site and off-site
• Platform independence preserves user choice and eliminates vendor lock-in
• Flexible, high-performance read/write from heterogeneous operating systems allows multi-user collaboration and optimizes all IT resources

Alliance IT has an extensive offering of intelligent SAN switching, directors, and routers to connect servers and storage systems in local, campus, and global infrastructures.  In addition, Alliance IT also offers the Professional Services capability to assist in the design and implementation of the SAN, with the goal of maximizing efficiency, performance and resiliency, while optimizing application traffic in the network.  We currently support StorNext, CXFS, IBM GPFS, and Lustre.
