  soutions sidebar Virtualization is changing the face of computing right now - today. Organizations are rushing to embrace a new paradigm as part of the most major shift in the industry we have seen in almost 20 years. Virtuzlization promises a new way to do business for any organization, whether large or small, and offers flexibility, agility, and ease of management heretofor unforseen in the x86 computing space.
Virtualization, in its simplest form, decouples, or abstracts, one computing component from another. In many ways, virtualization has been around in many forms for many years - whether it be hardware partitioning from the mainframe platform, VLANs on the network, or virtualized memory, the concept is not new. Yet significant changes has taken place over the past ten years to bring virtualization to nearly every aspect of x86 computing, from the datacenter to the desktop.
  • Datacenter virtualization
  • Under Construction
  • Desktop Virtualization
  • When you think about it, desktops are the enterprise. In any given organization, there are more desktops than servers, usually by orders of magnitude. Furthermore, as distributed end-points, desktops are hardest to secure, manage and maintain. Refreshing the desktops is one of the most challenging tasks facing an IT staff, and most companies go through it every 3-5 years! Couple that with increased hardware and client OS heterogeneity, mobility requirements, and security concerns, and you have a dilemma...

    How do we provide our users with an affordable, reliable, easy to deploy and manage computing environment for their daily work?

    Organizations can fold their desktop environments into the data center, which is optimized for efficient resource utilization, runs automatic backups and controlled by the organization's enterprise IT policies.


  • Application Virtualization
  • There is a major problem in the desktop space, and every organization deals with it. Every company has a desktop staff, and the sole purpose of that staff (even if it's only one person!) is to deploy and support applications to the users in the company. That staff has to deal with application conflicts and issues with "badly behaving applications," an inability to deploy all required applications to specific desktop image (usually due to different hardware requirements), and expensive application compatibility testing with a large testing matrix.

    Enter application virtualization. Virtualizing your applications allows you to reduce your compatibility testing, deploy multiple versions simultaneously, and simplify application troubleshooting, and all without regard to the type of device the application is being delivered to (PC, terminal, thin client, etc.)
