I am preparing for infrastructure refresh, mainly server, and storage.

Couple questions..

1. What applications, OS's, platforms. Also, if it's Server and storage I'd consider HCI (which makes doing this remotely a lot easier for standup etc).

2. What is it replacing (Server and storage, hypervisor etc?)

Can anyone recommend an elite vendor in the area that could architect and deploy?

Why does it need to be local? When I worked for a VAR and did deployments we did stuff remote all the time. Either using remote hands to help stand up, or pre-installing and drop shipping, or just flying a resource in for a day of rack/stack. You don't need the PSO group doing this to be local (I'd rather get the best, rather than the best within 15 miles!).
