Server Virtualization
COMTEK Group offers many Professional Services, but the one that has the most potential for operational savings is in the area of Virtualization. Being able to leverage your existing investment in hardware architecture can provide a substantial reduction in cost to your company.
Whether you want to:
- Run multiple Operating Systems on the same physical device (Server) or
- Reduce further device purchases and still expand your operation by taking advantage of systems that are running at low resource capacity, and use one device as if it were several independent servers or
What is virtualization?
- Virtualization is an abstraction layer that decouples the physical hardware from the operating system to deliver greater resource utilization and flexibility.
- Virtualization allows multiple virtual machines, with heterogeneous operating systems to run in isolation, side-by-side on the same physical machine.
- Data does not leak across virtual machines and applications can only communicate over configured network connections.
- As an average most windows servers typically use between 5 and 10% of available resources
- The resources your applications currently utilize will be available for use in a virtualized environment.
Benefits of Virtualization:
- Increased hardware utilization
- Reduced Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)
- Reduction in hardware costs
- Reduction in hardware support costs
- Reduction in power consumption
- Reliable disaster recovery solution
- Decreased server deployment time
- Increased server availability
- Multiple Operating Systems on the same platform
