Strategic Consultancy
Strategic consultancy starts with the analysis of our clients’ current IT strategy, and the understanding of their organisations’ challenges. We discuss the plans for the future, both with regards to the IT infrastructure, and the business goals. On the basis of our findings, we develop an IT strategy for the business, confirm it with our clients, and implement it over a fixed term.
We will ensure that existing systems and applications are leveraged wherever conceivable, and that the business operations are impacted as little as possible.
Integration
We extend our clients’ cost-efficiency through the seamless integration of Linux software and technology into their business. Our work is without compromise to ensure that we satisfy the business requirements without a prejudice to any type of software. However, our strategic partnerships with all major hardware and software vendors enable us to size, cost and implement a strategy that takes advantage of Linux as an alternative computing platform wherever appropriate.
Our aim is to integrate a solution that best meets our clients’ needs, using the armory of Linux, Unix and Microsoft tools wherever appropriate.
Server Consolidation
Server consolidation is a strategic way to improve infrastructure performance whilst reducing support and maintenance costs.
A consolidated virtual infrastructure enables unprecedented levels of workload isolation, granular resource control for all of the system's computing and I/O resources. Virtual infrastructure integrates well with existing system management software and improves return on investment in shared storage (SAN). By consolidating physical systems in the data center onto servers with VMware virtual infrastructure, enterprises experience:
- Lower hardware acquisition and maintenance costs
- Consolidation of idle system resources
- Increased operational efficiency
- Cost-effective and consistent production environments
LinuxIT offers server consolidation using Intel under the VMWare VIP Partner program, or the Power 5 architecture with the IBM Open Power system.
Security
In today’s business environment, data security is a major issue that cannot be neglected. The use of public and private networks, the world wide web and other communication devices make any business vulnerable to threats from both outside and within.
LinuxIT delivers cost-effective and reliable security solutions that can be integrated throughout your entire IT infrastructure. Our extensive systems security expertise will be used to identify areas of weakness in your current environment, and to recommend appropriate security solutions - whether you are using Linux, Unix, Microsoft or other operating systems.
Our security services are designed to ensure that you have taken every precaution against possible attacks. We will show you how to 'harden' your systems and also ensure that the correct patches and policies are in place for you to maintain a secure system in the future.
