Virtualization
What is Virtualization?
Virtualization is a proven software technology that is rapidly transforming the IT landscape and fundamentally changing the way that people compute.
Today's powerful computer hardware was originally designed to run only a single operating system and a single application, but virtualization breaks that bond, making it possible to run multiple operating systems and multiple applications on the same computer at the same time, increasing the utilization and flexibility of hardware.
Partnership
DataPipe has partnered with VMware through VMware's Service Provider Program.
Flexibility
Virtualization allows for more flexible hosting environments. DataPipe VMware ESX Server environments allow clients to deploy, modify, and implement virtual seamlessly in minutes compared to hours with physical equipment.
Infrastructure Optimization
Most server resources are under utilized. VMware allows for server hardware to be consolidated making efficient use of your hosting infrastructure. Resources on the ESX environment are pooled and available as needed, as opposed to remaining idle and unused.
DR / Business Continuity
VMware allows DataPipe to offer flexible and scalable disaster recovery environments that meet organizational business continuity requirements. High availability ESX environments use VMotion to eliminate downtime for planned maintenance and allow for fast recovery of unplanned outages.
