Server Virtualisation, supplied & supported

Most businesses do not need a separate physical box for every job. Virtualisation lets several independent servers run side by side on one capable host, each isolated in its own virtual machine. That means less hardware to buy and power, tidier server rooms, and the freedom to spin up a new server in minutes rather than waiting weeks for kit to arrive.

It also makes your setup more resilient. Virtual machines can be backed up as a whole, moved between hosts and restored quickly, so recovering from a hardware failure or a bad update is measured in minutes, not days. We design, build and manage virtual environments using platforms such as Microsoft Hyper-V and VMware, sized so there is always capacity to fail over safely.

No, when it is sized correctly. We assess the workloads you want to run and specify a host with enough processor, memory and storage performance for all of them, with headroom to spare, so users notice no difference.

Because each server is a self-contained virtual machine, we can back up the whole thing and restore it on other hardware quickly, so a failed host or a bad change is recovered in minutes rather than rebuilding from scratch.

Yes. We can convert existing physical servers into virtual machines, a process often called P2V, then retire or repurpose the old hardware, usually with very little downtime for your team.
