| Big or small, all organizations consider the same factors in determining storage needs – recovery time objective (RTO) and recovery point objective (RPO). Your RTO is how long you can afford to be without your network. For example, if your Web site crashes, how quickly do you need to have it up? Your RPO is how much data you are willing to lose, i.e. if you backup your data every 24 hours, you are saying you are willing to |

| Unified storage is a one-stop shopping option for your storage needs. While network-attached storage (NAS) and storage area networks (SANS) only service one type of storage, unified storage brings together different storage options to create a consolidated storage technology, meshing varying functionalities into one solution. Rather than paying for technologies you may not need right away, the layered software allows you to access dif |

| Everyone knows virtualization can save you money and reduce your carbon footprint, but it can also save you big when it comes to disaster recovery. When there is a catastrophic data loss, 75 percent of businesses never reopen because they did not take proper steps to protect themselves, and of the 25 percent that do reopen, 60 percent take roughly two years to recover. Through virtualization, your data infrastructure becomes a file th |

| When it comes to data storage, there should be a direct correlation between the cost and performance of your storage technology and the mission criticality of the data you keep on it. The more mission critical the data, the higher grade equipment it should reside on. Conversely, you can save money by moving lower-value data and archives to lower cost, lower performance storage media. By properly tiering your data storage solutio |

| For backing up data that requires less speed for recovery and should provide optimal capacity without taking up too much physical space, consider Serial Advanced Technology Attachment (SATA, or Serial ATA). Serial ATA can reduce your storage rack space requirement by up to 75 percent, decrease energy use and reduce your footprint at gigabyte costs comparable to magnetic tape. |

| A typical shared storage solution requires many hard drives – i.e. multiple, motorized, energy-consuming, heat-generating spindles – and that means money, even at optimum levels of performance. Solid state drive (SSD) technology eliminates those moving parts and can actually outperform conventional hard drives on access time and latency. The end result is less heat dissipation, energy consumption of 1/25 the energy of conv |

| The value of upgraded systems depends on how they affect the entire organization – not just one department. New system features that may be of little use to one part of the organization may be a boon to other departments in saved time or reduced costs. In order to fully assess the impact a new system may have, be sure to gather everyone’s feedback – you just may uncover a lot of savings you didn’t realize were |

| Your conference calling service rental may not be an obvious savings target, but if you host a lot of calls it can really add up. Many phone systems include or offer conference calling capabilities as a standard feature or an affordable add-on. This can avoid the long-term annuity that you pay an outside firm to host audio, web or video calls for you. |
