The data centre is undoubtedly at the heart of today’s enterprise. MindTree recognizes the data explosion both online and offline as well as the resulting opportunities and challenges. New storage devices, distributed data centres, and software applications to enhance classification, Information Lifecycle Management (ILM), and management of huge data repositories are driving new product innovations. Sound governance mechanisms, transparency, and accuracy are necessary for compliance with regulations like SOX. Continuous availability of actionable data is now part of an organizations competitive edge – requiring efficient backup and disaster recovery. MindTree also sees the importance of data security, as data can be at risk both at rest and in transit. Protecting brands and minimizing cyber crime requires data protection across all layers of the infrastructure.

MindTree addresses the needs of clients in the storage industry - software and applications, management, networks (SAN and NAS), subsystems and appliances, and semi-conductor vendors.

Storage Software - Applications, Management, And Compliance

MindTree knows what it means to create a reliable enterprise storage solution that meets end user needs. We have extensive experience in storage protocols, backup and recovery applications, information lifecycle management (ILM), and compliance. We also provide perspectives on product roadmaps and the use of the right tools and technologies. We develop reliable, cost-effective yet scalable solutions that exceed performance benchmarks. Our complementary skills in hardware design, networking, and consumer appliances enable us to bring in a systems perspective to product development and deployment.

Our Experience

MindTree developed a backup-recovery management solution for a leading storage software vendor. The solution scaled up to 2500 machines, well above the set 500-machine requirement.

Storage Systems

MindTree has extensive experience in chip design, hardware development, subsystems design, and embedded programming. This, along with our domain knowledge (iSCSI, Infiniband, Fiber channel, RAID, HSM) in storage systems, allows us to quickly build and ramp-up any engineering activity. We can take complete ownership of product engineering and development, as well as product management responsibilities to guide the overall product roadmap and features.

Our Experience

MindTree has made contributions as part of the core architecture team building an industry leading RAID controller product, for a leading storage hardware vendor.

Storage Networks

MindTree has significant experience and expertise developing enterprise storage and networking products. Our in-depth understanding of storage networking protocols (iSCSI, GE, FC), allows us to provide complete engineering and product realization services to Storage Networking Vendors - SAN, NAS, and storage switches. With pre-built test suites and lab infrastructure, MindTree can provide engineering testing, test automation, porting and migration services for storage networking equipment vendors.

Our Experience

MindTree partnered with a leading storage network equipment vendor to create a customizable solution comprising our licensed iSCSI protocol stack. Further, we provided complete engineering testing services – scoping, design, architecture, development, conformance testing, and test automation – for the iSCSI storage switch that was compatible with current and upcoming iSCSI standard drafts. Technologies used include Java middleware, Linux drivers, and iSCSI.
