What is Virtualisation?
Virtualisation
:VMware
Virtualisation is a growing phenomenon worldwide, with companies making vast savings on; power, capital cost for hardware and space in overcrowded server rooms. VMware vSphere makes the most of your physical servers; typically a physical server only uses an average of 5-15% of its resources. VMware vSphere allows you to use this spare capacity and can significantly reduce the number of physical servers required to run your business. Reducing server hardware requirements by a 10:1 ratio or better is not uncommon.
Virtual infrastructure is managed from a single point of control, this allows you to create, move, monitor and maintain your servers far more efficiently than traditional hardware servers.
Using VMware vCentre Server with vMotion and VMware Distributed Resource Scheduler you will be able to automate administrative tasks to ensure that your virtual infrastructure remains available. Live migration of servers from host to host allows maintenance to be carried out in hours and ensures that your servers have the resources they need.
VMware products such as vCenter Site Recovery Manager and High Availability give your business the tools needed to recover from unplanned failures from a server failure or the loss of a building VMware can help you get up and running again.
VMware solutions combined with robust storage area networks can deliver a robust scalable IT infrastructure for businesses of every size. i-dash’s VMware qualified team have successfully analysed, designed and migrated a number of our clients over to a virtualised environment and shown real time operational benefits as well as cost savings. Not only is this cost effective but also the most environmentally friendly option!
