VIRTUALIZATION
Virtualization
Virtualization implies the creation of a virtual version of something – in this case, a server, Operating System (OS), network resources, or storage device. In case of companies & businesses, it involves the creation of a virtual system using the software that enables hardware functionality.
Thus, virtualization enables administrators & other users, even customers, to access relevant data & resources from across the enterprise from any place & at any time.
Virtualization is the answer to some of the most common challenges faced by new-age CIOs & IT managers. These include:
- Cost-effective utilization of IT infrastructure
- Go-to-market support for new business initiatives
- Flexibility in adapting to organizational changes
- Urgency to maintain the climate of IT budgetary constraints and work efficiently in today’s stringent regulatory requirements.
Virtualization enables skilled IT managers to deploy creative solutions to address these challenges.
Virtualization services offered by VDA:
Server Virtualization: This is the process of creating a number of isolated/unique servers from a single server with the help of a software application. Each of these virtual servers can independently run their own operating systems.
VDA offers OS-level virtualization, full-virtualization and para-virtualization services.
Storage Virtualization
Too much data scattered across to many devices? With VDA’s storage virtualization services, all of your physically stored data from multiple devices can be pooled either into a single storage device, or a storage capacity that can be managed & accessed from a central console. The popularity of storage virtualization is increasing as it facilitates easy backup, recovery & archiving of data in lesser time. In short, storage virtualization helps do away with the complexity of data management with the Storage Area Network (SAN) by aggregating functions.
