Assess and Analyse IT environments to ensure successful virtualisation projects
The VMXperts team will work with you to determine the best path to follow when planning a new IT infrastructure project. We have developed a structured framework for gathering the information needed to ensure a complete understanding of not only the technology requirements of the project, but also the operational requirements and the business services that utilise the environment.
Architect and design virtual infrastructure solutions
We will use the gathered information, as described above, to design a solution that meets the business requirements and that will able to function within the operational constraints as defined by the technology selected and the operational maturity of the environment.
Virtualising Business Critical Applications
We have assisted a number of clients with projects that have focussed on deploying Business Critical, Line of Business applications on the selected Virtual Infrastructure platform. This process includes understanding the dependencies of the application, an ensuring that the hypervisor is correctly configured to provide not only application performance that is line with a physical server, but providing levels of availability that physical servers are not able to provide. We have skills to assist with virtualising the following applications:-
· SAP
· Microsoft SQL
· Microsoft Exchange
· Microsoft Sharepoint
· Oracle
Implement private cloud solutions
As the drive towards Cloud based solutions becomes more prevalent, VMXperts will provide you with the expertise to convert your current internal IT systems into a Private Cloud offering that will not only enable your business to be more agile, but also enable your IT operation to be more pro-active and more effective in providing the required business services
End User Computing Solutions
The Post-PC era is transforming the way we work. End-users need secure and mobile access to applications and data on the device of their choice for maximum productivity.
The solutions available from VMXperts enable you as the IT manager to retain control of the environment, implement enhanced security for your business critical data, while enabling the workforce to connect to and work with each other through a new breed of social applications that support real time sharing, collaborative workflows and multi-channel communication.
Virtual Infrastructure Management solutions
As more of your IT infrastructure is deployed on virtual platforms, the ability for traditional management systems to cope with the new structures, and the dynamic nature of the environment is limited. New solutions that are Virtualisation aware, and that provide analytical engines that enable dynamic thresholds, and intelligent alerting form part of the offering that VMXperts can provide to assist with critical area
Disaster Recovery
Our expertise in virtualisation was founded on delivering successful Disaster Recovery solutions for our customers based on the ability of Virtual Infrastructure to mask the hardware from the operating system required to run the business application.
As the technology has matured, so our methodologies have been adapted to provide our customers with the best possible solutions, that not only meet the Business Continuity requirements, but also provide them with the reports required for compliance with auditing standards such as King III.
Security and Compliance
Traditional security solutions are not always flexible enough to meet the requirements of a dynamic data centre, where workloads are automatically moved from one physical server to another, or where workloads are only communicating to each other within a physical server, with no external links. These issues can be addressed with new security offerings that form part of the VMXperts security and compliance solution set. These products can deployed within you virtual environments to provide security services that are Virtual Workload aware, and that can provide reports on the security status within the virtual environment for compliance requirements
