Virtualisierung

The future is in software-defined data centres (SDDC).

 

Virtualisation has long been a critical topic that goes far beyond mere desktop virtualisation, with many companies having virtualised parts of their data centre infrastructure, such as server, storage, security and network technology. Virtual servers are especially common in companies and public institutions. Software-defined data centres (SDDC) empower your IT to respond quickly to the business-critical requirements of individual departments or entire divisions. They also increase the reliability of your workflows—if a device fails, data streams are automatically rerouted, maintaining availability.

SDDC – Virtualise your future.

Software-defined data centres will take you one step further towards the future. Bechtle’s in-house infrastructure is operated in two data centres, independently of all hyperscalers.
Book load balancers, firewalls, and other components with just a few simple clicks instead of having to set up and install them in a rack as with a traditional network. The SDDC is your virtualised network service provider. It detaches computing power, storage capacity, network technology, IT security and more from your physical hardware, controlling it via overarching management software to automate and drastically simplify the management of your entire infrastructure.

 

Take your data centre into the future with a Software Defined Data Centre. Benefit from the multiple advantages of this solution such as flexibility, less manual intervention, easy scalability, sustainability, and reduced costs.

Enhanced productivity through automated control.

Increasingly often, traditional data centres are struggling to provide the services required by a company’s various departments quickly, flexibly and affordably. Software-defined data centres solve this problem by combining applications and resources easily, dynamically and automatically to match your exact needs.
Bechtle will help you design a software-defined data centre to take labour and cost-intensive hardware configuration and management off your hands. Concentrate your resources on your core business again as intelligent applications take on the configuration and provisioning of computing, storage and network services. Resources are grouped into individual pools, significantly simplifying and streamlining the processes behind security and availability services.

 

The benefits of SDDC at a glance:
  • Flexibility and agility
     
  • Easy scalability
     
  • On-demand resource provisioning
     
  • Cost and energy savings
  • Fewer costly, time-intensive manual configurations
     
  • Less IT management
     
  • All resources are mapped out and controlled through software in a virtual environment
     
  • Sustainable and future-oriented
The best thing about a software-defined data centre?

It allows you to take a decisive step towards green IT! Our SDDC is Zero Carbon Committed and both data centres operate exclusively with hydroelectric power plants. The high power density of our hardware (currently up to 128 physical cores per single server) protects valuable resources and rare earth elements.

 

Virtualisierung

What is an SDDC?

An SDDC is a data centre that virtualises an entire IT infrastructure. The virtual layer contains the software which abstracts resources and makes additional services available. The hypervisor is at the core and controls the virtual components. The term SDDC was originally coined by the vendor VMware. Many classic data centres are bursting at the seams when it comes to the amounts of data required for clouds and to remain flexible. This is where software-defined data centres come in—all data centre components are consolidated and managed via an operating system as described above. Security is also boosted as an SDDC also runs all security features on each virtual machine.
