For many years, our organization has used AFS to store and distribute critical design and operation information across a geographically diverse team of engineers and technicians. In 2007, a strategic decision was made to evaluate our use of Transarc AFS, and consider the future of our distributed file system needs. We called upon Sine Nomine Associates to assist us in our transition planning. Sine Nomine Associates provided us with the plan and expertise to migrate our extensive Transarc AFS environment to OpenAFS. This service was professional, informative and complete. We were able to successfully migrate to OpenAFS with no significant impact to our customer base, and with high praise for both Sine Nomine and our staff.
Our operational support inquiries vary from information about how OpenAFS interacts with operating systems and other applications, to dealing with critical severity 1 issues. Sine Nomine Associates responds promptly and effectively. They provide us not only with a solution, but an explanation as to why that solution will address the reported issue. Furthermore, Sine Nomine Associates pro-actively provides advice for future planning for our environment. We consider them part of our production OpenAFS team.
We are proud to work with SNA and gladly recommend their OpenAFS expertise.
