VMWare Hosting
Many organizations are looking to virtualization as a way of speeding innovation and curbing server sprawl. And while many companies have successfully used virtualization to dramatically increase server utilization rates—and at the same time reducing the costs of management, energy and cooling—to improve operational efficiency and manageability, these results aren't always guaranteed. What is guaranteed is BluePoint's Revolution™ service delivery model which will guide you down a short-term or long-term path, to a true 50% reduction in your IT costs.
BluePoint Managed Server services for VMware server virtualization provides a proven and structured approach to x86 server virtualization that is designed to help you avoid complications caused by the incompatibility and unsuitability of your existing infrastructure. It includes three steps—solution design, transition planning, and service implementation. Leveraging this methodology, BluePoint can help you achieve a successful virtualization project that not only provides a foundation for a more dynamic IT environment, but also enables innovation.
Virtualization will be the highest-impact trend changing infrastructure and operations through 2012, according to a 2008 Gartner press release. Virtualization will transform how IT is managed, what is bought, how it is deployed, how companies plan and how they are charged.
