Virtualisation in the modern data centre

The need to support business innovations in the best possible way and boost productivity are the drivers behind modernising data centre architectures. This creates the need for consolidation, simplified administration and an improved cost situation, as traditional data centres are often inflexible and require a lot of managing. From virtualisation to automation and dynamisation, Bechtle’s experienced consultants and data centre experts support you with precisely the right concepts to ensure that your IT is stable, efficient, scalable and always available.

The virtualisation of networks, servers and storage is a critical stepping stone on the way to a next generation data centre, but it’s not the only one because a growing number of resources can be outsourced to the cloud and used as an on-demand service as and when required. This means the data centre is extended into the cloud as an on-premise solution meaning data centre operations become more flexible and efficient. Hybrid scenarios are the future of the next generation modern data centre.

Virtualisation = modernisation – Bechtle’s foundations and platforms of the future.

Rapidly growing data volumes thanks to Big Data, artificial intelligence, Industry 4.0 and IoT are posing every more complex questions of IT admins when it comes to the future of server and storage architecture. Ever more powerful servers and modern storage systems are needed that are high-performance and scalable and meet the requirements efficiency, automation and centralised management requirements. It’s no surprise that pretty much all companies are migrating their data and applications into the cloud, but that is only half the issue. There are still a lot of questions to be answered: Which server architecture is the right one? Are hyper converged infrastructures the best solution for businesses? To what extent can hybrid or software-defined storage solutions (e.g. vSAN) help? Not all servers and storage are the same. The latest processors have to be designed for critical workloads, real-time analyses and machine learning. Efficient storage architectures have to offer the highest levels of scalability and flexibility. The right mix is essential—powerful systems, server and storage virtualisation in a software-defined data centre, hyper converged solutions and the customised use of the cloud.

Your benefits:

Reduce costs and increase transparency: Always know who is using which resources.

Boost efficiency and flexibility: Automate services and processes and provision IT resources as required.

Simplify deployment and increase performance: Faster and more secure access to mutual resource pools.
