Optimise planned or existing virtualised environments
To realise the diverse benefits of server virtualisation, some important decisions need to be made in the crucial planning and design phases. Before committing to a solution, you should have a clear understanding of how the virtualised infrastructure will look, the initial investment required and the prospective cost-savings.
Supporting all hypervisors, HP Insight Capacity Advisor Virtualisation Services combine years of experience, industry-leading HP Insight software and HP Labs intellectual property to help customers start their virtualisation initiatives and optimise existing virtual environments.
Lower costs: HP virtualisation experts help create return on investment models for financial cost justification and recommend the best approach to virtualising multi-vendor environments to maximise ROI.
Manage risks: HP experts offer insight on best practices for reducing the risk of downtime in virtualised environments. HP’s experts have the ability to model multiple scenarios to determine the most cost-effective solution, allowing businesses to align cost with business value.
Accelerate growth: Customers are able to integrate physical-to-virtual and virtual-to-virtual implementations to increase flexibility across the business.
HPs comprehensive approach differs from traditional offerings by supporting several technologies, including those from Microsoft and VMware. This approach has the breadth and depth of expertise required for both physical and virtual environments.
