Server Virtualisation
How It Works
We virtualise your physical server estate to reduce hardware cost and management overhead. Host design, storage planning, network segmentation and restriction of management access on VMware ESXi are all handled by us.
We operate hypervisors on three separate physical servers in our own infrastructure. The same architecture can be deployed at your location or in a data centre, or you can host your systems on our infrastructure.
Core Features
Host and storage design
Host count, memory and disk architecture are planned against measured resource requirements.
Network segmentation
Management, production and DMZ traffic are isolated on separate virtual switches.
Backup integration
Virtual machine backups run automatically and restore times are measured.
Restricted management access
Hypervisor management is reachable only from defined trusted sources.
Implementation Process
Analysis and discovery
We survey the requirement on site and document existing systems and constraints.
Design and planning
We put the architecture, the schedule and the deliverables in writing.
Implementation
We share progress regularly during development or deployment.
Go-live and support
Testing, training and post go-live support are handled together.
