Minneapolis, MN, December 14, 2006 – http://www.evolvingsol.com/ - Evolving Solutions, an IT storage architect providing data on demand, storage virtualization and disaster recovery solutions, is celebrating its tenth anniversary.
Evolving Solutions offers IT storage architecture services and solutions to help businesses optimize their storage environment for better efficiency and a greater total cost of ownership. As Evolving Solutions has grown in the last ten years, co-founders Jaime Gmach and Rebecca Olson have watched the IT storage industry also evolve.
“It’s amazing to reflect on how much we have achieved in the last 10 years,” said Jaime Gmach, President and CEO. “We have grown Evolving Solutions from a husband and wife duo into a $60 Million company with 49 employees. Not only has Evolving Solutions been consistently named one of the fastest growing companies in the Twin Cities, but we have also been recognized as a rapidly growing storage company on a national level.”
At their inception in 1996, Evolving Solutions had many requests for RS6000 hardware and peripherals. Evolving Solutions differentiated itself by providing technical support which today still remains one of its main differentiators. Over the past few years, the IT storage industry has started to focus more and more on storage and server virtualization technology and the related benefits, including greater total cost of ownership and a positive impact on a company’s bottom-line.
Minneapolis, MN, December 7, 2006 — http://www.evolvingsol.com/itxray.html — Evolving Solutions, a data on demand and storage virtualization expert, has launched ITxRAY (SM), a new service designed to provide businesses with a snapshot view and analysis of their current datacenter environment.
Evolving Solutions’ new service “X Rays” businesses’ datacenter environment and provides a detailed inventory of your servers/hosts, storage, applications, services running, and other mission critical data.
“Sometimes, businesses don’t know there’s a problem or that they could be operating more efficiently,” said Chris Taylor, Director of Professional Services and Solution Sales, Evolving Solutions. “Organizations can now come to Evolving Solutions for an ITxRAY like patients would go to a doctor.”
Evolving Solutions uses the in-depth picture provided by ITxRAY to address key business issues faced by today’s CIOs and IT professionals. Properly addressing these issues can reduce overall costs while optimizing and improving service levels for customers and the organization as a whole.
The biggest challenges faced by today’s IT professionals that can be addressed using ITxRAY include:
• Under-utilized Servers & Storage
• Compliance
• RTO/RPO do not meet changing business climates
• Redundant software licenses
• Data retention policies are not enforced or in place at all
• Business Continuity risks
• Servers and clients exposed to security threats and risks
• Inconsistent software & hardware levels
• Unnecessary applications and services running on servers
• Servers/IT assets used for “non-business” related activities
