DynaSis Invests In A New “Software-Defined” Data Center

DynaSis, Atlanta’s premier provider of IT services and support for small and medium businesses (SMBs), announced today it has partnered with Peak 10, Inc. and has built a new software-defined data center at their new location in Alpharetta. Peak 10 has 25 data centers across the U.S., many of which are linked to their host cities via Internet backbones and high-speed connections. The sites of Peak 10’s connected data centers align well with the locations of DynaSis eastern-market customers, enabling DynaSis to provide their clients with a host of new services. These new capabilities will build on the foundation of providing Availability, Security, and Mobility to the Modern Business.

“Peak 10 is a highly regarded, world-class data center company,” said DynaSis President Dave Moorman. “Although our previous provider was incredibly reliable and supportive, this move enables us to support a wider range of locations and provide more service flexibility to our customers, including more Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery options.”

With the move, DynaSis is also transitioning to a fully operated “software-defined” data center model with solid state drives (SSDs) as primary storage and a 10GbE core network backbone. In a software-defined data center, a smaller number of denser hard drives replaces the older, larger drives that previously required extensive numbers of rack systems. The new drives have tighter, more robust software integration, increasing virtualization capacity, control, scalability and other operating benefits. A smaller footprint enables more drives to operate in the same space, expanding data center capacity and increasing overall efficiency.

Making the shift to SSDs increases performance substantially. SSDs can have 100 times greater performance, almost instantaneous data access, faster boot times and more rapid file transfers than legacy magnetic drives. SSDs also have no moving parts to wear out.

“With our new infrastructure design, we will have the capacity to host 8,000 servers, all of which will offer better performance than any previous solution,” said Moorman. “We are always seeking ways to benefit our customers, and the move to Peak 10, combined with adoption of the now fully matured software-defined data center and SSD technologies, will bring our customers a substantial functionality and productivity boost.”
