 Is your IT expenditure on the increase? Has your business considered the alternative to physical infrastructure?
Did you know...
• the importance of your business not running out of physical space?
• many business do not have their IT equipment located in a suitable place?
• that centralising monitoring and management of your infrastructure when you have multiple locations is quite achievable?
• we can consolidate your infrastructure?
• that you're productivity can be increasedy?
• would you like to reduce your spend?
• does your organisation require its resources and IT to be flexible?

Our solution?
Our solution to address these issues utilises the product VMWare Infrastructure Enterprise, a virtual data centre operating system that consolidates disparate server, storage and networking hardware to create a single shared dynamic platform. Our solution is a suite of software that optimises and manages IT environments through virtualisation. This technology comprises:
|
| ESX 3.5 – This software enables physical servers to be partitioned into multiple, secure and portable virtual machines with each machine representing a complete system. |
Virtual Symmetric Multiprocessing – Enables a single virtual machine to use multiple physical processors simultaneously. |
v Motion – Allows the migration of virtual machines to a physical server ensuring maintenance can be carried out without disruption. |
High Availability – Enables cost eff ective application availability, independent of hardware and software. |
| v Storage Virtual Machine File System – A high performance cluster fi le system. This enables multiple installations of ESX to access the same virtual machine storage concurrently. |
Distributed Resource Scheduler – Aligns available resources with pre-defined business priorities which balances workloads and reduces power consumption, whilst streamlining labour and resource intensive operations. |
Storage v Motion – Allows the migration of virtual machine disks from a shared storage location without disruption or downtime to users.
|
Consolidated Backup – Provides easy to use centralised backup for virtual machines. |
In addition, we can provide the following services related to virtualisation:
Virtualisation technology support service
The purpose of this service is to provide ongoing support for virtualisation solutions. This includes both hardware and software related support.
Virtualisation technology implementation service
The purpose of this service is to implement server virtualisation solution/s to an agreed design for the customer. This would include both hardware and software related activities.
Virtualisation technology design service
The purpose of this service is to design server virtualisation solution/s to meet the business requirements of the customer. This allows for the more efficient and effective usage of hardware, reduces infrastructure related costs and provides an agile server environment.

Benefits:
• Less physical infrastructure required thereby reducing costs on labour, products, power and maintenance
• Increased resource and server utilisation.
• Allows migration of live environments thereby minimising downtime and maximising profi tability
• Has the fl exibility to dynamically change environments independent of hardware thereby reducing the risk of system failure
• Updates and patch management for physical ESX hosts as well as guest operating systems enforcing compliance and security policies
• Aligns available resource with pre-defi ned business processes and priorities whilst balancing workloads and reducing power consumption thereby streamlining resource intensive activity
• Provides a centralised back up for virtual machines ensuring a more eff ective and efficient back up process
• Accelerates deployment activities
• Improves business response times
