Virtualisation and Consolidation Solutions

Preparing a virtualisation strategy for your business is no trivial task. Identifying the best migration approach and implementing a practical and effective solution requires experience and expertise. Virtualisation solutions will help your business to more effectively use the equipment and resouces you have whilst contributing to a reduction in greenhouse emissions.
 
Our virtualisation solutions core competencies are focused around the following areas and key strategic partners:
  • Desktop (VMware, Ncomputing, Sun).
  • Server (VMware, Xensource).
  • Storage (VMware, Hitachi Data Systems, Sun).
  • Backup and Recovery (Quantum, Hitachi Data Systems).

Our Virtualisation practice has been recognized as the LEADER in both Asia Pacific and Australia for Technical Achievement by a number of vendors.  To find out more please click here.

Benefits:

Alphawest can confirm your environment with an assessment service, and we will show you how Virtualisation will benefit your company with Total cost of ownership (TCO) and return on investment (ROI) whilst showing you the following benefits:

  • Server Consolidation and Infrastructure Optimisation: Virtualisation makes it possible to achieve significantly higher resource utilisation by pooling common infrastructure resources and breaking the legacy "one application to one server" model.
  • Physical Infrastructure Cost Redution: With virtualisation, you can reduce the number of servers and related IT hardware in the data centre. This leads to reductions in real estate, power and cooling requirements, resulting in significantly lower IT costs.
  • Improved Operational Flexibility and Improved Business Continuity: Eliminate planned downtime and recover quickly from unplanned outages with the ability to securely backup and migrate entire virtual environments with no interruption in service.
  • Improved Desktop Manageability and Security: Deploy, manage and monitor secure desktop environments that end users can access locally or remotely, with or without a network connection, on almost any standard desktop, laptop or tablet PC.
