Virtualization

Speed delivery of services and support new initiatives

You know that infrastructure matters. With the right platform, you can reduce costs, respond more quickly to business needs, and take on the challenges such as big data and mobility. Virtualization is the single most effective first step to reducing IT expenses while boosting data center efficiency and agility – not just for large enterprises, but for small and midsize businesses too.

While many organizations have virtualized servers, it's only the beginning. Zones can help you extend virtualization concepts to network and storage resources along with desktop applications to help you take your data center from deeply siloed operations defined by hardware to highly automated resources designed around software. Zones provides leading virtualization solutions that offer choice and flexibility. And our virtualization solution architects can help you implement an on-premises or cloud-based solution, or both.

Server Virtualization

Server virtualization addresses IT's most pressing challenge: infrastructure sprawl. Virtualization makes more efficient use of server resources, improves server availability, and centralizes server administration. Plus, a virtual infrastructure offers advantages that are not possible with a physical infrastructure.

Zones can help you virtualize your IT infrastructure to run multiple operating systems and applications, making your infrastructure simpler and more efficient. Applications get deployed faster, performance and availability increase, and operations become automated. The result: IT that's easier to implement and less costly to own and manage.

Desktop and Application Virtualization

Whether you're building a new data center, transitioning to new servers, or growing your IT infrastructure, you can streamline your IT project by leveraging Zones services.

The days of client/server computing and end users doing work from one device and one location are gone. Today, end users are leveraging new types of devices for work, and using multiple devices.

Whether you choose to run desktop virtualization in house or use desktop as a service, Zones will help ensure you get the full value of virtualization which extends far beyond basic consolidation. We'll show you how virtualization solutions from our partners can simplify operations, enhance dynamic scalability, improve security, support new devices, accelerate application delivery, and reduce the costs of computing.

Software Defined Networking

SDN provides controller-based networking for end-to-end visibility across the network, and the ability to move application workloads between compute resources connected to different physical switches, without requiring network reconfigurations.
