What is virtualisation and how can it help you?

In summary virtualisation is the ability to run multiple operating systems on one computer, whether that computer is a server or a PC.

In the last three and a half years Computer Strategies has seen an amazing uptake of this technology from clients.

The immediate benefits of virtualisation are:
• Reduction in computer hardware costs
• Reduced electricity costs
• Reduced space overheads for computer hardware

Plus,
• Disaster recovery of computer systems is far simpler and less costly
• Very sophisticated options for increasing operational resilience in sites with multiple servers
• Increased speed in installing new servers and test systems which in turn improves overall
operational efficiencies
