DeepExpertise.Multi-VendorResults.
StoneCreek designs, implements, and supports enterprise storage, data protection, and compute infrastructure — with 25+ years of hands-on experience across the US and UK.
Boutique Depth. Enterprise Experience.
We're not a generalist reseller. We're a specialist firm built around deep technical expertise and long-term client relationships — US and UK.
Architecture-First
Every engagement starts with understanding your workload, not a quota. Our founders have personally architected storage environments for Fortune 500 financial services, healthcare, and payment processing customers.
True Multi-Vendor
Certified across primary storage, data protection, compute, and virtualization platforms. We recommend what solves your problem — not what closes our quarter. No single-vendor lock-in agenda.
US & UK Coverage
With headquarters in Marietta, GA, StoneCreek operates across North America and the United Kingdom, giving multinational customers a single trusted partner for enterprise infrastructure on both sides of the Atlantic.
Mission-Critical Focus
Our sweet spot is environments where downtime has a real cost — financial services, payment processing, healthcare. We specialize in high-availability storage architectures, synchronous metro mirroring, and async DR.
Automation & Scripting
Storage REST API integration, host provisioning pipelines, snapshot orchestration, and platform-to-platform device mapping. We close the gap between vendor tools and what your operations team actually needs.
Talent & Staffing
Need a resident engineer or permanent placement in Cloud DevOps, Cloud SecOps, or Data Center architecture? We recruit, evaluate, and place engineers with the depth to hit the ground running.
What We Deliver
Purpose-built solutions across enterprise storage, data protection, compute, and cloud — matched to your environment, not a product catalog.
Enterprise Storage & Replication Architecture
We design and implement storage environments built for extreme uptime — from initial capacity planning through multi-site replication, failover testing, and day-2 operations. Our practice covers block, file, and object storage across all-flash, hybrid, and high-capacity platforms, with deep expertise in synchronous metro mirroring for zero-RPO requirements and asynchronous DR for geographically distributed environments.
Data Protection & Backup Architecture
Comprehensive backup, recovery, and cyber-resilience solutions aligned to your RTO/RPO requirements. We design environments with immutable backup targets, air-gap strategies, and ransomware recovery capabilities — including storage-integrated snapshot management and automated recovery testing.
Server & Compute Infrastructure
Rack-and-stack through full HCI deployment. We design server infrastructure around your workload demands — high-density blade chassis for virtualized environments, purpose-built density platforms for AI and analytics workloads, and converged HCI for simplified operations.
Cloud Adoption & Hybrid Strategy
Structured cloud adoption aligned to your existing on-premise investments. We guide hybrid architecture decisions, workload migration planning, and cloud-connected DR — so your cloud strategy extends your infrastructure rather than replacing it prematurely.
Scripting & Automation Services
Custom automation built on your actual environment — storage REST API integration, host provisioning pipelines, snapshot orchestration, and platform-to-platform device mapping. We close the gap between what vendor tools offer and what your operations team actually needs.
Best-of-Breed Vendors
Certified across the full enterprise stack — primary storage, data protection, compute, virtualization, and cloud.
Our Leadership
Operators and advisors with combined decades of hands-on enterprise IT experience — not career salespeople.
Dale Sides
Dale brings 25+ years of enterprise IT experience spanning SAN architecture, systems administration, pre-sales engineering, and database work. His hands-on technical depth — from AIX MPIO and storage scripting to multi-site replication architecture — is paired with the business instinct to match the right solution to the right problem. Before entering his technical career in the early '90s, Dale served as both a communications specialist and cavalry scout in the United States Army, reaching the rank of Staff Sergeant and serving in Saudi Arabia, Iraq, and Kuwait during Desert Storm.
Mark Ziskind
Mark brings over 19 years of technology consulting and managed services leadership. Prior to co-founding StoneCreek, he founded Headwaters Group in 2005 — a leading consulting firm specializing in enterprise storage, backup and recovery, virtualization, and networking. Earlier in his career Mark was part of Sun Microsystems' Professional Services practice and PricewaterhouseCoopers' strategy and technology consulting group, advising Fortune 1000 companies on technology investments. Mark holds a BS from Tulane University and an MS in Management Information Systems from the University of Virginia.
Brian Andrews
Brian is your dedicated point of contact at StoneCreek Technologies, bringing 20+ years of enterprise IT experience to every engagement. He specializes in connecting organizations with the right storage, data protection, and infrastructure solutions — cutting through vendor complexity so you get outcomes, not just products. Brian works closely with StoneCreek's engineering and pre-sales teams across our various partnerships to deliver solutions that are sized correctly, priced competitively, and built to last. His clients benefit from an advisor who understands the full stack — from Server and SAN architecture to licensing — and who will advocate on their behalf throughout the entire project lifecycle.
