Virtualisation Solutions, VMware Implementation & Server Consolidation Services
Business pressures are causing IT departments to be continually tasked with reducing costs and increasing service levels. At the same time they also have to build an IT infrastructure that can quickly respond to evolving business needs. Historically, increased demands have been met by adding technology resources, but this method is not only inefficient it can no longer satisfy the above criteria. Now there is a solution that can meet these conflicting requirements – virtualisation.
Virtualisation can help your organisation optimise, pool and share IT resources in a way that:
- Reduces costs
- Saves time
- Makes your IT infrastructure more flexible
What is virtualisation?
Virtualisation is the pooling and sharing of IT resources, including servers, storage and networking. In a virtualised environment, the logical functions of computing, storage and network elements are separated from their physical functions.
Elements from these pools can then be manually or automatically allocated to meet the changing needs and priorities of a business. These concepts can be applied broadly across the enterprise, from data centre resources to PCs and printers.
It enables people, processes and technology to work together more efficiently to meet increased service levels. Since capacity can be allocated dynamically, over-provisioning is eliminated and your entire IT infrastructure is simplified.
Example
“Some Application Servers typically run at a mere 5-15% CPU utilisation. Transforming physical Servers into Virtual Servers and consolidating them would see an increase in utilisation by up to 80%, whilst significantly reducing running costs.”
Benefits
Virtualisation delivers quantifiable savings in both capital and operating costs by:
- Increasing hardware utilisation and reducing hardware spend
- Lowering your infrastructure costs
- Reducing your physical and carbon footprint
- Decreasing staff costs
