Over the past few years, virtualisation
has played a key role in many businesses' IT strategy. The ease of
deployment, scalability and management of virtual computing have
allowed companies to spend less and achieve more from their IT
budgets.
Recent advances in virtualisation, the replication of virtual
environments and remote access application delivery platforms have
enabled not only a re-think of current hardware purchase strategy
but also allowed the remote hosting and failover of IT so disaster
recovery is more affordable, flexible and scalable than ever
before.
One of the key elements of a good virtualisation strategy is to
understand not only the business requirements as they are today,
but also the demands of the future.
Databarracks have been designing, implementing, hosting and
managing virtual environments for our customers and our own
platforms for many years.
Many companies are turning to virtualisation to help
them reduce IT costs and to improve productivity. As older physical
IT infrastructure comes near to end of life and new server and
storage hardware becomes more powerful and affordable,
virtualisation is becoming the choice of more businesses as the
future of their IT operations.
From the beginning of any virtualisation project it is important
to understand which virtual platform to use, decide on the most
suitable hardware and storage platform and how to build a scalable
and resilient hardware platform. A good virtualisation project can
save a lot of money and time and prevent bad decisions becoming
expensive and time consuming later on.
Databarracks have been involved in the design and build of
virtual environments for many years. We have experience with
VMWare, Hyper-V, Zen and other open source virtual platforms. We
have a great depth of experience building out scalable and cost
effective storage and server environments with some of the worlds
most trusted vendors.
For many companies Information Technology, computer
systems and applications form a very important role, but the cost
of having this infrastructure hosted in house does not make sense
in terms of either cost, infrastructure of security. With a managed
virtual environment from Databarracks your company can have the
best technology, bespoke business applications and 24/7/365 support
without the need to manage your own IT.
Databarracks are able to design, build, host and manage your
virtual IT infrastructure and make your IT elastic to suit your
business needs for a low monthly cost allowing your team to focus
on your business.
Historically having disaster recovery systems in place
to take over your IT workload in the event of a disaster has meant
large costs in terms of hardware, hosting, licensing and
management. In recent years, the availability of virtualised
environments and the growing amount of replication tools out there
have meant that even if you are not virtualised in your production
IT environment, which you are able to fail over to a virtual
environment at a fraction of the cost.
Since Databarracks invented Virtual Disaster Recovery in 2006 we
have been at the forefront of providing our customers with virtual
environments for disaster recovery. No matter if you require a
dedicated virtual disaster recovery platform or use of our highly
secure and scalable shared platform, if you need a 4 hour or 4
second recovery time, Databarracks can design a platform to suit
your requirements and your budget.
