Virtualisation

Virtualisation is changing the face of computing; the management of systems can be infinitely improved and streamlined by the adoption of Virtualisation technologies.

With power charges increasing, and business foot prints becoming an increasing concern, more and more enterprises are turning to Virtualisation as a solution. As the technology matures, Virtualisation is no longer a “bleeding edge” system, and many businesses are feeling the benefits of moving to a virtual environment. The ability to add an additional server within seconds, or to migrate from one desktop operating system to another over night, is just two examples of the benefits that can be experienced.

In addition, many businesses are utilising Virtualisation technologies as part of their DR and Business Continuity plans. By deploying such technologies as Citrix Xen Motion or VMWare VMotion, enterprises are able to dynamically migrate from their production environments to their DR sites almost instantaneously whilst at the same time being able to provide Virtual desktops to their end-users via the internet, enabling staff to work remotely in the event of a disaster.

Desktop Virtualisation is also becoming more prevalent as many organisations choose to virtualise their desktops (VDi) to improve their client’s user experience. By virtualising an end users desktop, IS departments can provide a computing experience as though the user is accessing systems from their office environment, from any machine connected to the internet; with no security risk.

Krome’s specialist Virtualisation team consists of a number of VCP’s (VMWare Certified Professionals) and Citrix professionals who have designed, implemented and supported over 200 Virtual environments.

Our team of industry seasoned professionals are happy to work with you from the initial concept right through to the delivery of your virtual environment.
