Virtualisation is the single most important technology that is rapidly transforming the IT landscape and fundamentally changing the way that people compute.
At Enables IT we see with our customers that virtualisation dramatically improves the efficiency and availability of resources and applications in your organisation. An automated datacenter, built on a virtualisation platform, lets you respond to market dynamics faster and more efficiently than ever before., delivering resources, applications—even servers—when and where they're needed. customers typically save 50-70% on overall IT costs by consolidating their resource pools and delivering highly available machines.
When Enables IT refer to virtualisation, we see the following areas that are dramatically improved and collectively these areas combine to create the utopian virtual data centre
In each area of virtualisation, Enables IT work with the market leading vendors to provide tailored business solutions for our customers based around the following five key drivers :-
-
Get more out of your existing resources: Pool common infrastructure resources and break the legacy "one to one" model.
- Reduce datacenter costs by reducing your physical infrastructure and improving your server to admin ratio: Fewer servers and related IT hardware means reduced real estate and reduced power and cooling requirements. Better management tools let you improve your server to admin ratio so personnel requirements are reduced as well.
- Increase availability of hardware and applications for improved business continuity: Securely backup and migrate entire virtual environments with no interruption in service. Eliminate planned downtime and recover immediately from unplanned issues.
- Gain operational flexibility: Respond to market changes with dynamic resource management, faster server provisioning and improved desktop and application deployment.
- Improve manageability and security: Deploy, manage and monitor environments that users can access locally or remotely, with the restriction of the physical device.
