The New Vision of How Technologies Intersect

Virtualization Innovation from Siwel

A seismic shift is occurring in data centers around the world. Companies are demanding greater returns on their investments in information technology. They're also looking to cut the skyrocketing costs of energy consumption from hardware that runs continually but is only partly or seldom used. Virtualization solutions from Siwel effectively and efficiently tackle these problems. They let you logically allocate resources—freeing you from the limitations of physical hardware. You immediately boost utilization, enhance business flexibility, simplify management, improve business continuity, and increase information and application availability.

Five Reasons to Virtualize

Server Consolidation and Infrastructure Optimization—Virtualization helps you achieve significantly higher resource utilization by pooling common infrastructure resources like servers and storage. You can dynamically allocate those resources to applications and processes according to business needs. And you can easily manage and monitor multiple resources in multiple sites from a central location.

Data Center Cost Savings—With virtualization, you can reduce redundant server, storage, and networking requirements. This leads to reductions in facilities costs, power and cooling requirements, management oversight and capital expenditures. In essence, virtualization allows you to run more workloads with less hardware. The only thing worse than 100 underutilized servers is 200 underutilized servers.

Improved Operational Flexibility—Virtualization offers new ways of managing your IT infrastructure. Centralized control of resources and automated functions eliminate tedious, repetitive and time consuming manual tasks like provisioning, configuration, monitoring and maintenance. This, in turn, enables your IT staff to focus on high-value projects that improve your business.

Improved Application Availability and Business Continuity—Virtualization eliminates your dependence on any single piece of hardware, which improves disaster recovery by minimizing your risk of unplanned downtime and enhancing your ability to recover quickly from disasters. Additionally, virtualization lets you securely backup and migrate entire virtual environments with no interruption in service. This lends unparalleled efficiency with which you can recover your data.

Improved Desktop Manageability and Security—Virtualization lets you deploy, manage and monitor secure desktop environments that end users can access locally or remotely—via thin client, standard desktop or laptop. Because everything resides on a virtual machine, there's no risk of a remote PC infecting the network with viruses. And management is a snap.

Consultants First

Siwel started as a consulting firm. Accordingly, we carefully look at our customers' business problems before we recommend solutions. We thoroughly assess how customers' IT environments map into the virtual world. Then we help you prioritize which applications to virtualize for maximum business benefit.

Virtualization is more than cool technology. It helps redefine the vision of what a data center can and should be. It's not just consolidation. It's a new way to think about how to protect your information without having to duplicate environments. Let Siwel show you how virtualization can improve your business and protect your information.
