Expert Sun & Oracle Support That Strengthens Your IT Operations
Extend the life of your Sun and Oracle infrastructure with experienced engineers, flexible support options, and reliable service designed to keep mission critical systems running efficiently.
We Add Experts to Your Team
At Extended Technical Solutions, we know your infrastructure depends on consistent reliability. Our Level 3 engineers specialize in Supermicro rack, blade, and storage platforms, including SuperServer, Twin, FatTwin, and Ultra systems. They bring years of datacenter experience directly to your operation—acting as an extension of your IT staff and ensuring every node receives precision maintenance and fast response.
Focus on Your Priorities
OEM renewals and EOL pressure often slow teams down and drain budgets. Two common problems we solve:
Wasted Time: OEM escalations can be slow and complex, leaving you waiting for updates and consuming valuable staff hours.
Resource Misallocation: End-of-support announcements often push upgrades of perfectly stable Supermicro hardware—forcing capital spend where none is needed.
Our proactive third-party model keeps your Supermicro systems optimized, documented, and fully supported—so your engineers can focus on mission-critical initiatives.
Unbiased Recommendations
Relying on OEM support typically comes with constant refresh pressure. If a motherboard or PSU fails, you may be told replacement parts are unavailable or that it’s “time to refresh.”
ETS operates differently. We’re vendor-neutral, focused on extending the life of your existing Supermicro estate with transparent sparing strategies, firmware planning, and stable SLAs—not upsells. You get clear options to stabilize, co-term across multiple locations, and plan your modernization on your own schedule.
Empower your team with expert Supermicro support and predictable uptime.
