Adding new storage technologies such as SAN and Fibre Channel to your storage environment can have many advantages. These include increased availability, performance, flexibility, and cost-effectiveness. But if these technologies are not planned for sufficiently — including an analysis of costs and benefits — or if they are not implemented with adequate expertise, they can actually have an adverse effect on your storage operation. Chi Corporation's Technology Impact Analysis service enables you to significantly reduce the risk of deployment of new storage technologies by providing you with a detailed project impact analysis. The service will help you understand the potential risks of deployment and the effects on your storage environment.

Chi Corporation and partner consultants examine the requirements of deploying new technologies and develop an in-depth analysis of the impact on your environment, along with an implementation plan. Analysis includes migration from existing operations to implementation of your new strategy.
