By integrated platforms we mean running services on as few different platforms as possible to achieve utilisation, performance and resilience. The aim of integrated platforms is to:
- reduce platform costs
- achieve performance and resilience
- build up enough expertise to run the platforms securely and reliably.
We can build and run complete integrated environments for your Citrix, SAP, Documentum, SharePoint, CRM, messaging or web services. We can provide you with complete development and test environments running on low cost consolidated platforms. We can provide high performance resilient platforms for your production systems.
We use the following technologies to achieve integrated platforms:
VMware
- vSphere and ESX Server for server consolidation
- VMware Virtual Appliances to isolate applications.
Microsoft
- Office Sharepoint Server platform
- SQL Server for database services
- IIS and ASP.NET for web services
- Clustering, replication, log shipping for high availability, resilience and recovery.
Citrix
- XenApp Server for terminal services to centralised applications
- Citrix Access Gateway for remote access to central applications and data over Internet
- EdgeSight for performance management
- Netscaler for load balancing, caching, SSL offloading.
HP
- StorageWorks Modular Smart Arrays for consolidated storage serving applications on different servers, and enabling consolidated backup.
RedHat
- Enterprise Linux for Apache, Squid, and other Open Source web services.
Symantec (Veritas)
