But in case you have ever wondered why a business would rent
a file server we have taken the liberty of listing a few common
reasons. We should confess however that these are all
reasons for file server rentals that we have learned
from our customers. Should you have a unique reason for
a server rental that we have not touched on below please
visit our blog story on "Reasons
to Rent a Server" and tell us about your reason.
File Server Rental for Proof of
Concept:
Corporate America is anything but shy when it comes to
testing new methods, principles, or new ways to
accomplish any task. This sprit of innovation often
requires well planned cooperation with the Information
Technology department to insure that the right file
server is available for the project.
The best way to insure that the proof of concept is
given a valid test is by renting the exact file server
configuration that the development team recommends.
A File Server Rental for a proof of
concept gives a company the flexibility to source any
file server configuration they need, when they need it,
for how long they need it, and for only a fraction of
the cost of a purchase.
File Server Rentals for a Data
Center Move:
Nothing in the business world is set in stone, including
the location of your data center. A File Server Rental
for a data center move is a common occurrence when you
have the chance to work with as many clients nationwide
as our Tech Travel Agents do.
File Server Rentals are used in a data center move in a
number of ways depending on how the move is planned. In
some situations a File Server Rental is installed in the
new data center and becomes the live file server when
the existing center is shut down. Then the equipment
from the old data center is moved and the live server is
swapped back to the non rental server.
In other data center moves File
Server Rentals are there onsite at the new data center
location in advance of the move to act as a backup. In
mission critical applications the risk of damage to the
customers existing hardware as a result of the move is
unacceptable and rental equipment is there for the
technicians in case of any problem.
File Server Rentals for Disaster Recovery:
As much as we would like to think that certain things,
such as fire, floods, and earthquakes won't happen to us
they happen some where every day. When they do companies
can take advantage of the file server rentals to get
their office back up and running quickly.
File Server Rentals for Disaster
Recovery or even equipment failure can help bridge the
gap until new hardware is sourced or a repair is
effectuated. Having your file servers online during that
gap could mean the difference between profit and loss
for your business in the time of crisis.
File Server Rentals for Classroom
Training:
File Server Rentals for classroom training allow an
instructor to completely simulate a corporate
environment in the comfort of their class room from any
where in the country.
Often for I.T. related training the file servers
themselves, or the operating systems they run, are the
subject of the training class. Advanced classes in
server operating systems from Microsoft, Sun, IBM, or
even Linux can all benefit by having access to the
actual hardware on which the software runs. Through the
rental of one larger file server, and by using software
that allows that server to emulate multiple dedicated
servers, students can even have their own virtual server
to administer.
File Server Rentals for
Animation or Rendering:
An animation or rendering project is the perfect example
of a project that can always benefit from extra
horsepower. Outsourced rendering can cost hundreds of
dollars per hour. By taking advantage of a file server
rentals for a rendering project your company is able to
keep total in hours control and reduce costs.
Like rendering there are hundreds of situations and
applications that require extra server horsepower. File
server rentals fill those needs perfectly while helping
to preserve your companies capitol, ensuring that the
latest technology is being used for the project, and
even providing a possible tax write off in comparison to
a certain increase in your property tax caused by a
server purchase.
So as you can tell a File Server Rental is an intelligent
and cost effective solution for a number of
short-term projects.
