REPRESENTATIVE USE CASE
Enterprise Storage Modernization and Data Lifecycle Management
A storage infrastructure refresh and data management strategy that improves performance, reduces risk, and establishes tiered data lifecycle policies across the enterprise.
PRACTICE
CLIENT PROFILE
Federal agency managing petabytes of mission-critical data across multiple classification levels with aging storage infrastructure
Challenge
- Legacy storage arrays approaching end-of-support with growing capacity demands
- No formal data lifecycle or tiering strategy; all data treated equally regardless of access patterns
- Backup and recovery processes are manual, slow, and insufficiently tested
Approach
- Assess current storage utilization, performance bottlenecks, and data classification
- Design tiered storage architecture with high-performance, capacity, and archive tiers
- Implement automated data lifecycle policies for migration, retention, and disposition
- Modernize backup and disaster recovery with validated recovery time objectives
Typical Outcomes
- Reduced storage costs through intelligent data tiering and deduplication
- Improved I/O performance for mission-critical applications
- Validated disaster recovery with documented and tested RPO/RTO targets
Procurement Paths
- NASA SEWP V and SEWP VI for enterprise storage platforms
- ITES-4H for Army storage hardware
- GSA MAS for data management and migration services
