A typical client for Kanatek Consulting Services is an organization looking for advice around an IT issue or a significant IT investment.

For example, a large federal government agency wanted to develop a high availability and storage plan for a group of applications, each running with their own storage, and they knew that without a clear plan for the increased storage the service would break down. They also knew that if they went to the manufacturers for help, the solution would be “buy lots more storage”. So they asked Kanatek to guide them through the mass of technical and product issues, to produce an application-centric risk assessment and review that mapped out the storage architecture through a collaborative approach with the client’s staff.

The end result was a report that was implemented in full that met the clients’ needs for minimum disruption and investment, and maximum effectiveness.
