Virtualisation – Do More with Less

What is Virtualisation?

Simply defined. Virtualisation is using a reduced number of physical devices to run a larger number of virtual or logical devices. This is accomplished by using virtualisation software to create a layer between the underlying physical hardware and the virtualised computing resource. The virtualised resources will then share items on the physical host including – memory, CPU’s, network, disk I/O and storage.

Types of Virtualisation Solutions

Server : Servers are generally under utilised. A single File and Print server may only ever reach 2-3% utilisation. This leaves the server sitting idle 97% of the time. Through the use of Virtualisation on the physical hardware can support multiple Virtual servers, thereby increasing the servers utilisation.

Storage: Allows for pooling of storage resources from multiple locations. This reduces the amount of lost or orphaned storage space and increase utilisation.

Hyper Converged :Hyperconvergence is an IT framework that combines storage, computing and networking into a single system in an effort to reduce data centre complexity and increase scalability.

Network: Allows for the combining of resources within networks. Network Virtualisation eases the tedious and time consuming management of networks. It allows for optimisation of network speed as well as increase reliability, flexibility, security and flexibility.

Desktop : a workstation is virtualised with all its applications and preferences into a virtual machine (VM). This VM can be accessed from anywhere within the organisation from any workstation located in the organisation. Machine and patch maintenance becomes easier and Total Cost of Ownership is reduced.

Benefits

  • Reduced power consumption and cooling costs through consolidation
  • VM’s can be backed up whilst running
  • VM’s can be restored easily to another server or location
  • Allows you to run different operating systems on the one piece of pysical hardware
  • Higher performance due to load balancing
  • Faster deployments – Virtual server images can be created and brought up in seconds

As both A Vmware and a Microsoft partner we can providing consulting services in the early stages of your Virtualisation project planning. Guide you through best practises based on our hard earn’t experience as well as assessing your current technology solution and making recommendations on improvements.
