Purpose

To authorize the purchase of a redundant data storage device to be installed at the backup data center in the Law Enforcement Center.

Background

Background: Sauk County’s information system utilizes a centralized network storage unit for system file storage.  For system storage redundancy, a second device is to be deployed at the Law Enforcement Center, as part of the implementation of a backup data center,

The funds for the purchase of this device were included in the MIS 2019 Capital Improvement Plan (CIP).  The plan, as approved by the CIP Committee, designates an amount of $44,763 in 2019 for this purchase.  This amount was subsequently appropriated in the 2019 MIS budget.  

Purchase of this storage unit is key in the implementation of system redundancy, safeguarding critical data and providing improved system dependability.
