Many companies are looking to consolidate and simplify their IT environments. This consolidation can encompass many areas, including servers, storage, remote site backup and more recently remote sites themselves. Consolidation can provide many benefits, including simpler, easier to manage applications and infrastructures and reduced management costs.

In the data centre, Redstor’s consolidation solutions include server and storage virtualization and storage consolidation through the implementation of Storage Area Network (SAN) and Network Attached Storage (NAS) architectures. Server virtualisation brings unmanageable server sprawl under control by using virtualization to run multiple workloads on fewer servers and to reduce needs for physical servers, reducing hardware and operational costs. Storage Virtualisation maximises storage resource utilisation while dramatically simplifying management resulting in lower hardware costs, lower software costs and lower management costs.

For companies looking to consolidate remote servers or remote sites themselves our wide-area data services solutions can be used to accelerate application performance typically by five to 50 times and in some cases up to 100 times over the WAN, and optimise WAN bandwidth utilization typically by 60 to 95%. These application performance improvements ensure that remote users can successfully access consolidated data and applications, while the resulting WAN bandwidth optimization ensures IT managers that they can minimize or altogether delay additional bandwidth investments. Users will feel as if they getting the performance of local infrastructure, while the organisations get the benefits of consolidation.
