Virtualization dramatically improves the efficiency and availability of resources and applications in your organization. Internal resources are underutilized under the old “one server, one application” model and IT admins spend too much time managing servers rather than innovating.
Today administrators have to configure the switches and the VM environment in case of a migration of a Virtual Machine to another physical machine. This is dual administration ( network layer & vCenter ie )
- more work
- more risk
There is a better way by keeping the networking tasks and the server tasks seperated and introduce anintegration between both, this is what BLADE offers via VMready.
An automated datacenter lets you respond to market dynamics faster and more efficiently than ever before. Running multiple operating systems on a single computer including Windows, Linux and more.
Reduce capital costs by increasing energy efficiency and requiring less hardware
and increasing your server to admin ratio. Ensure your enterprise applications perform with the highest availability and
performance. Build up business continuity through improved disaster recovery solutions and
deliver high availability throughout the datacenter. Improve enterprise desktop management & control with faster deployment of
desktops and fewer support calls due to application conflicts.
GreenBytes is now VMready™ certified.

Why Your Company Should Virtualize
Virtualizing your IT infrastructure enables you to reduce IT costs while increasing the efficiency, utilization, and flexibility of your existing assets. See how virtualizing 100% of your IT infrastructure will benefit your organization. Read how you can save your virtualization & VDI budget here.
Infrastructure Consolidate-IT offers a complete suite of products required for your virtual infrastructure. We can also advise you on how to make your infrastructure cloud-ready.
Intel’s Nehalem and Westmere processors are an excellent platform for your server & desktop virtualization. Their new family of processors with 6 cores and more are well suited to replace server and desktop CPUs.
The Virtual Infrastructure needs the bandwidth and low latency provided by 10GbE to drive storage and to support the enormous IOs that are needed.
VMready
Blade networks offers great value for server virtualisation via VMready. Both the internal blade server switches and the external Top-Of-rack switches can support VM ( VMware, Citrix, Hyper-V, Redhat KVM). This creates the Open VM infrastructure, making the virtual machines network aware.
VDIready
Since the desktops are non predictable, the demand is higher. VDI demands low latency networking since every IO and session interaction goes via the network. VDI demands low latency storage since every IO goes to the central storage.
With Blade you are VMready and VDIready. You can offer the affordable networking infrastructure that is well managed via BladeHarmonyManager.
"Implementing plans to ensure business continuity for key IT services and business critical applications is an essential requirement for organizations today. Downtime of important applications is a costly proposition and extended downtime can even be fatal—industry research finds that a significant number of companies that experience extended interruption to IT services soon go out of business. BLADE’s patented VMready solution works with VMware infrastructure to ensure that the network infrastructgure is virtual machine aware." Read the Solution Brief
