A major problem in many of today’s data centers is the presence of heterogeneous technologies dedicated to supporting disparate devices and applications. These complicated, disconnected infrastructures are difficult and expensive to support, maintain and upgrade.

That’s why Brains II specializes in helping companies consolidate servers and storage with solutions from leading manufacturers. We can help you minimize the complexity and cost of your IT infrastructure as well as improve system performance and security.

Consolidating servers and storage improves data availability, improves the performance of business critical applications, optimizes system efficiency, and simplifies backups. It also enables your IT staff to focus on work that drives your business — rather than managing servers and storage.

The latest IBM technology — including System p5™ and System x™ servers, and IBM System Storage™ and TotalStorage® — only makes consolidation easier. Regardless of the systems you currently use, you can easily consolidate to servers and storage solutions from Brains II. Save your business time and money by running multiple applications and operating systems on less equipment.
