Virtualisation Overview

Though our private cloud solutions we can highlight the benefits and cost saving of implementing a virtual infrastructure within your business. 100% of the US Fortune 100 companies now use server virtualisation for reliable performance, improved manageability and greater flexibility. Using a virtual server infrastructure can help reduce costs, lower management overhead, and increase server uptimes.

Each virtual machine has its own operating system and application roles. Hence, you can run Windows Server with Exchange within a virtual machine, on the same physical server as a virtual machine running a Linux web server. By consolidating existing physical servers onto fewer virtualized servers, significant cost savings can be made.

A new virtualized server platform can also provide resilience to ensure that the new infrastructure will provide high levels of service availability. Each virtual machine can be moved between each physical server; hence all virtual machines have the ability to automatically re-locate if a server fails. Typical server downtime due to hardware issues is therefore reduced from a typical 24 hours to as little as 90 seconds.
