As part of IBM's Global Services organization, the HPSS team in Houston offers a variety of services, including storage systems consulting services. HPSS systems engineers collectively represent over one hundred years of experience dealing with mass storage system deployment, hierarchical storage management, data storage system technology insertion and sunsetting, data repository migration, and related requirements for customers worldwide. Using proven systems engineering methods, the engineers follow a rigorous process to analyze requirements, develop a system-level architecture, propose design alternatives, validate requirements against possible solutions identifying remaining gaps, and provide recommendations for follow-on actions and closure. Services are tailored to specific needs, including phased approaches that logically sequence tasks allowing the scope of services to be adjusted based on time and budget constraints.
For additional information on how the HPSS team can serve your storage systems needs, please contact Jim Gerry at jgerry@us.ibm.com.
