Servers – The Heart of the Modern Organization

Business as we know it could not function without servers. They are the heart of every organization, responsible for providing resources both internally and to remote workers. They receive user requests and serve users with content, whether it’s for file storage, web hosting, or as a login panel to some resource. A server consists of fast, reliable hardware and software for managing its content and access.

Among the solutions we provide, you’ll find tested and solid suppliers:

How to Choose a Server for Your Company?

The main criterion for choosing a server should be the nature of the business, developmental prospects, reliability needs, and above all… budget.

The most basic type of server is a NAS, which, despite its low performance, can heve a very large capacity, is easily scalable, and inexpensive. However, it performs better under low load. Each subsequent solution will differ in performance, mounting method, pricing, speed, or redundancy capabilities.

It’s important to consider:

• Reliability – the server is one of the strategic elements of any organization's infrastructure, so it's not worth skimping on its reliability. It's also worth checking if it's redundant – in the event of a failure, it switches to backup components.
• Scalability – every organization grows, and over time, its needs grow too. Make sure that the server's parameters can be easily and cost-effectively increased or that additional devices can be connected.
• Performance – especially important for larger organizations and those processing large amounts of data simultaneously. The speed of the server affects the loading speed of applications, files, or data analysis.
• Management – consider whether you have the appropriate skills in your team or if you have the possibility of another way to administer the server. If not, choose one that won’t be too complicated to manage in case of problems. Depending on your needs, check if there is a function for IPMI, i.e., remote server management.
• Additional functions – for example, hot swapping disks while the device is running. Some of the functions can facilitate running our business.

However, the unique individuality and character of company operations mean that experience, market knowledge, and technical knowledge of the supplier play a large role.

How Much Does a Server for a Company Cost?

You’ll need to spend from a few to several thousand zlotys on a professional server. However, it's worth bearing in mind that costs cover much more than just the purchase of infrastructure. It also includes transfer, insurance, and maintenance service.

For example, for a server for a small accounting firm, we need to prepare about 2,000 PLN. For a large manufacturing company, it will already be an expense in the range of ... PLN.
