Organization of the IT infrastructure

mdtech provides services for planning and creating a high-performance and manageable Information Technology Infrastructure (IT Infrastructure) for your organization.

Organizing a reliable IT infrastructure that ensures the smooth operation of corporate services and applications is a complex process. Creating a high-performance and scalable data processing and storage environment requires project experience and skills in implementing computing systems and storage networks.

Modern business processes demand the exclusion of information system failures, as these result in significant financial and reputational losses. Many companies often find that their current infrastructure is not ready to support new, resource-intensive corporate services.

How to Avoid Such Situations?

• Understanding the core requirements of business applications for the IT infrastructure.

• The correct approach to planning and designing the enterprise IT infrastructure.

Entrust the IT environment planning process to the mdtech team and receive expert recommendations and a well-founded IT infrastructure development plan that considers the specifics of your business applications.

• Assessment of the technical requirements of the customer's business applications.

• IT infrastructure audit, assessing the current performance of servers, systems, and Storage Area Networks (SAN).

• Development of recommendations for IT infrastructure modernization based on the analysis of the current equipment inventory.

• Formulation of an optimal concept for IT infrastructure development based on information about its current state.

Tools Used

We use cutting-edge tools for accurate assessment and planning:
