ALLIANCES

HP

We know HP. We've been working with HP for over ten years and are authorized at the highest possible level. And we'd like to introduce you to HP on this same level. Several of our employees have even worked for HP. We sell it, service it, know it inside and out. XP, EVA storage, Superdome and Integrity servers, Blades and CCI, desktops and laptops, HP software, and virtually every HP product- we've got it all covered and can guarantee you'll have it all covered in your organization with our help.

OST is an HP Platinum reseller, which requires $25 million in annual HP product sales. We're also certified Elite for Business Critical Servers (Integrity), Enterprise Storage (XP and EVA), Blade Servers, and HP Support Services. The only way we could know it better is if we were HP.

IBM

After ten years of selling IBM, we challenge you to come up with an IBM product that we don't know. As a matter of fact, our company president used to work for IBM. We offer IBM System p and Enterprise-class Storage (currently the DS series). We have a thorough understanding of the IBM approach behind each of their products. If you need an IBM product, we're authorized to not only sell it, but assure you receive the kind of support only OST can offer.

NetApp

We believe NetApp is the best NAS (Network Attached Storage) solution on the planet and feel that we know it about as well as anyone on the planet. We have been selling and supporting NetApp storage solutions for years and are authorized nationwide. If you are looking for a superior virtualized storage solution, are evaluating SAN's and would like a comparison, or just want to know more about NetApp - you came to the right place. We'd love to earn a chance at tackling your storage related technical and business issues.

Hitachi Data Systems

We've memorized the skeletal framework of Hitachi's high end storage systems. We understand how it provides the architecture for the HP XP inside and out. Many national enterprises have entrusted us to architect and implement complex HP XP SAN solutions for them. We are also authorized to sell the Hitachi Data Systems version of the XP.

BMC

Basically, we're your one call for BMC systems monitoring. We're proud to be one of a few BMC Elite Solution Providers in North America. We even created an entire practice whose sole purpose in life is BMC systems monitoring. In 2007, BMC selected us out of 60 solution providers across the nation as the go-to partner for BMC (Performance Manager).

VMware

Yeah, we know VMware. You might even say it's one of our specialties. We've helped many Fortune 3000 companies use VMware. Whether it's virtualization consultation and implementation or doing an enterprise wide consolidation, we help companies get it and use it smoothly. Your company will be no exception; let our specialty become your advantage.

Symantec

OST and Symantec? We have quite the history. Our specialty is implementing Veritas Cluster Server and Veritas Clustered File System, but we also have an in-depth knowledge of many of Symantec's huge portfolio of products. Our long-standing relationship and extensive experience helps us service Symantec products today, which we are authorized to sell and support nationwide.

Oracle

We're proud to be an official Oracle partner for many years. We could write a book on Oracle database and Oracle Real Application Cluster (RAC), but we figure we'll stick to helping companies use them instead. We can help with Oracle Apps, PeopleSoft, JD Edwards, and Oracle's data warehouse, too.

Microsoft

Of course we sell and support many Microsoft products. We have especially deep technical expertise in SQL server consolidation, Microsoft Windows Clustering, and AX (Axapta) systems architecture.

Cisco

If you need to use Director Level SAN switches, give us a call!

PlateSpin

We're an authorized PlateSpin reseller, so we'll help you perform complete end-to-end server consolidations faster and easier than ever before.

BladeLogic

We're an authorized BladeLogic reseller, helping organizations use server provisioning and compliance software to automate their data center change management and ITIL process.

Business Alliances

Infor (Baan)

Get the most out of your Baan - that's what we wish for you. And we want to help you do it. Although we're not officially an Infor partner, they caught wind of our skills and regularly subcontract us for the most complex Baan implementations.

Crowe

OST and Crowe Chizek have been in cahoots for over a decade. Back in the day, we assisted Crowe with technology services for BPCS and Baan. Now we're joining forces again to provide infrastructure sizing, design and implementation services for Axapta software installations.

Association Memberships

SNIA

We're glad to be members of SNIA, a non-profit dedicated to making storage networking easier to understand and simpler to implement. They do this by developing IT standards and educational programs that support the industry. And we're all for that.

HIMMS

HIMMS helps us to stay current on trends and directions in the Health Care field. They are exclusively focused on providing leadership for the optimal use of healthcare information technology (IT) and management systems for the betterment of healthcare.
