Virtualisation Services

Do more with less

Virtualisation provides a layer of separation between your physical computing hardware and the applications that run on it. It allows you to break the one-to-one relationship between hardware and software, and so reduce the physical equipment required.
Virtualisation can be considered as a form of resource partitioning - multiple virtual machines can be run simultaneously on the same physical platform, unaware and essentially unaffected by the presence of other virtual machines.

Using virtual infrastructure, IT managers can improve many aspects of business continuity and disaster recovery by realising faster, more flexible and reliable disaster recovery at a lower cost by removing the dependencies of operating systems on specific server hardware.
Whether you are looking for an easier way to manage your infrastructure, reduce costs, improve disaster recovery, better utilise and/or consolidate your server assets or flexible test environment, there is a virtualisation solution for your business.

Visible benefits for your business

Server consolidation and infrastructure optimization – achieve higher hardware resource utilisation by breaking the legacy “one application to one physical server” model and sharing hardware resources across multiple servers.
Reduction of infrastructure costs – reduce the number of physical servers and related IT hardware, leading to the reduction of power, cooling, and rack real estate.
Improved business continuity – eliminate planned downtime for hardware maintenance, and quickly recover from unplanned outages.
