Server Virtualization

Does your business still follow the old “one application, one server” model? If it does, then as much as 70% of your IT budget could be going to just maintaining your existing infrastructure rather than effectively leveraging it to promote business growth and innovation.

Virtualization solutions from Solid Networks and HP can help your company break out of that growth-constraining IT model by allowing you to run multiple applications on just one physical server. Virtualization reduces hardware acquisition and operating costs, which benefits your bottom line. It improves information availability and collaboration among your employees-helping your company to operate more efficiently and enabling you to devote more time to growing your business.

• Server virtualization and consolidation to minimize costs and reduce sprawl
• Virtual desktop integration (VDI) to improve information flow and efficiencies
• Virtualization-aware storage to simplify management of virtual machines
• Unified computing to optimize integration and centralize management

Virtualization Services Program Elements

Virtualization solutions from HP and Solid Networks can help your company use its existing IT resources more efficiently by accessing previously underutilized processing and storage capacity. From the desktop to the data center, Solid Networks provides virtualization solutions that can help you “work smarter” without unneeded technology investments.

• Efficient Desktop Virtualization: Break free from the “one PC per user” paradigm by replacing underutilized desktop computers with inexpensive thin client devices. The user’s experience remains the same, but all the processing and storage takes place on a small pool of optimized back-office servers.
• Improved Server Virtualization: Run more jobs on fewer servers. Virtualization reclaims idle processor time so each machine does more work with fewer wasted cycles.
• Enhanced Storage Virtualization and Consolidation: Using storage more efficiently means needing fewer storage devices. Storage virtualization creates a pool of capacity from your existing devices, so devices don’t go underutilized.

Building Smarter Businesses

Desktop, server and storage virtualization can also advance your business’ efforts to guard against data loss and business disruption, as well as facilitate disaster recovery and business continuity. In addition to reducing hardware expenses, virtualization also helps your employees collaborate more effectively. Now every user can access all the applications and information they need, directly from their desktop. That makes sharing easier and allows teams and task groups to work together regardless of time or location.
