Storage & backup
Storage architecture, backup strategy, and recovery procedures tested against real restore scenarios.
Backups that have never been restored are wishful thinking. We design storage and data protection around recovery objectives you can articulate — and we test against them as part of normal operations, not annual theatre.
Typical work
- Storage platform design — SAN, NAS, local, and hyper-converged tiers
- Backup architecture, snapshot policy, and off-site replication
- RPO/RTO alignment with infrastructure and database recovery plans
- Restore drills integrated into monitoring and lifecycle calendars
- Performance tiering and capacity planning for mixed workloads
- Archive and retention aligned with policy and audit requirements
Experience
From tape libraries to hyper-converged clusters to object storage — the media changes. The operational questions do not: what must survive, how fast must it return, and who executes the restore under pressure?
