Requirements and Issues
- Increase in company size required upscale in computing complexity
- Drastically increased power consumption
- All systems had to remain fully networked
- Finite space in computer rooms
- Server availability critical as production is 24/7
Our Solutions
- Combining Hyper-V with Systems Centre administration products
helps reduce the complexity of managing a growing virtualized server estate - 10 physical servers will carry out the work of 50 physical machines drastically reducing power consumption
- The Server Core deployment installs only the components of Windows Server that the company needs, lowering the amount of patching and maintenance required by the software, and reducing the attack surface exposed to the network
- Switching to virtual servers reduced the need for power hungry physical servers
- New and up to date integrated programmes are constantly monitored and backed up to improve overall availability
Outcomes.
- Considerable space savings. 10
physical servers running Hyper-V will do
the same work as 50 servers without
virtualization - Energy costs radically reduced, while the ongoing costs
will be much lower than with its previous
virtualization solution - IT team enjoys simpler administration with
powerful management applications
