Scaling Smart: Storage Decisions That Shape MSP Growth

Kimpton Margot Sydney, Australia

Hosted by Factor

Overview

For managed service providers, storage is no longer a background decision. Rapid data growth across customer environments, rising retention expectations, and increasing pressure on power, cooling and margins are turning storage into a commercial constraint as much as a technical one.

This closed-door roundtable brings together MSP leaders who are responsible for infrastructure decisions to discuss how they are evolving their storage foundations to support growth, profitability and operational simplicity. Rather than chasing complexity, the conversation will focus on how service providers are using modern, high-density storage platforms to scale capacity efficiently, reduce operational drag, and maintain control across on-prem and hybrid environments.

This discussion is designed for MSPs who manage growing data estates and want a clearer, more sustainable path to scale without over-engineering their stack or locking themselves into inflexible vendor models.

Key Discussion Points:

When Storage Limits MSP Growth: How capacity constraints, retention policies, and rising customer expectations are forcing MSPs to rethink storage strategies and infrastructure investments.

Designing Storage for Scale, Not Sprawl: What MSPs need from modern storage platforms - density, availability, and operational simplicity - to avoid fragmented environments as data storage surge.

Balancing Cost, Performance, and Resilience Across Customer Estates: How MSPs can optimise storage tiers, power usage, and management overhead while maintaining service quality and meeting SLAs.

Building a Storage Layer That Adapts as MSPs Mature: Selecting storage hardware and architectures that evolve with new workloads, customer demands, and shifting commercial models.
