Companies such as yours are looking to harness the promise of virtualization to help meet their dynamic business demands and reduce costs. Our solutions are built using the Windows Server® 2008 Hyper-V technology to create virtual machines that can utilize available hardware, run multiple operating systems, and manage both virtual and physical resources using the same industry-standard tools.
With Windows Server 2008 Hyper-V, Vector Systems can deliver end-to-end virtualization from the data center to the desktop. This groundbreaking software dynamically assigns server resources and provisions workloads through streamlined processes. This helps improve business availability during planned and unplanned down-time events, helps ensure a robust disaster-recovery process, and drives optimal resource utilization. As a result, you’ll be able to help control costs, improve service levels, and drive agility.
Because virtual machine technology enables multiple operating systems to run on the same computer, it can help your company:
- Consolidate servers to improve server utilization
- Re-host legacy applications on higher performance hardware
- Automate and consolidate software test and development environments
- Simplify disaster and recovery planning
