Virtualization:
Common Data Center challenges faced by the CIOs the world over are:
- Cost Inefficiencies of “server sprawl”
- Lower the overall cost of operating the Data Center
- Managing storage and servers at remote offices is becoming more complex and expensive.
IDC predicts that the number of servers in the U.S. alone will rise 50 percent over the next four years. Nine million servers currently operate in data centers across the U.S., impacting electricity costs, which is already in the range of $3.3 billion according to Information Week. As infrastructures have grown, expansion strategies have consisted of adding more servers. This situation is known as “server sprawl” and poses a costly set of problems for growing companies.
Virtualization offers cost-effective means to address complex hardware and software management issues (underutilized equipment, high power and cooling costs, floor space limitations and proliferating administration requirements.)
Strategies to reduce an organization’s total hardware requirements, both in the data center and in remote locations, enable companies to:
- Maximize hardware and software resources
- Simplify management and maintenance tasks and
- Decrease total cost of ownership (TCO)
Server virtualization
enables consolidation of processing, storage, and network resources into a vast virtual pool that administrators can provision on the fly to set up and tear down services as needed. Consolidation reduces the number of devices, along with their power, space, and cooling requirements, to lower energy costs.
Desktop virtualization
centralizes control of user compute and data resources. Today’s solutions centralize control and management of existing desktop and laptop computers. In the long term, desktop virtualization eliminates hands-on management of multiple operating systems and applications in individual client devices. Authorized personnel perform business processes using inexpensive client devices instead of expensive, fully loaded personal computers.
To achieve the full benefits of server and desktop virtualization, Global Consulting offers solution to enterprises. Global Consulting experts understand the complex interaction of hardware, applications, storage, and networks underlying the virtual fabric.
