Server Virtualization:
Organizations with a number of mission critical applications and dedicated servers can benefit greatly from virtualization, which allows for the consolidation of multiple applications and operating systems onto a single server. This dramatically improves the efficiency, availability and utilization of resources and applications in an organization. HighVail Systems implements virtualization solutions that save our clients up to 70% of overall IT costs by consolidating resource pools and delivering highly available servers with fail-over options.
Additional virtualization benefits include:
• Consolidates idle server and storage resources
• Re-deploys those resources on new projects
• Increases efficiency in operations
• Improves server management and mobility
• Improves service levels by providing zero-downtime
maintenance
• Standardizes environments and improves security
• Decreases recovery time in disaster situations
• Enables high availability with less redundancy
• Adapts more efficiently to dynamic business requirements
• Allows advanced backup strategies
• Reduces costs in technical support and training
Our clients rely on us to optimize their server infrastructure.
Our experience ranges from smaller-scale projects where we
are partitioning a few physical servers into multiple virtual
machines to building out an entire virtual infrastructure that
scales across hundreds of interconnected physical computer
and storage devices to create the foundation for building
private and public clouds.

Clustering:
Keeping mission critical applications and data available 24x7 is the high availability challenge. Today's businesses require IT solutions that meet availability requirements at mission, business, and task critical levels. HighVail Systems applies industry accepted best practices and a methodology to develop the right high availability solution to meet each clients’ needs. Our focus on high availability is backed by extensive experience implementing clustering solutions that range from single node clusters to multi-system, multi-site solutions. Our expertise minimizes application downtime and enables IT managers to maximize resources through proactive and centralized system and application management.
By consolidating multi-tier applications and databases, our clients can reduce software licensing fees, system management overheads and hardware costs for mission-critical application deployments.
Grid Computing:
Our experience implementing highly available servers and systems extends to Grid Computing. By bringing together loosely coupled, heterogeneous and geographically dispersed computing infrastructures, we help our clients establish a virtual super computer that has the computing power to perform very large tasks.
Cloud Computing:
HighVail brings together some of the industry’s most advanced server and storage solutions to support a wide range of IT infrastructure, application and content services that are delivered across public, private and hybrid clouds. The highly secure, scalable and reliable technology solutions implemented by HighVail are architected specifically for the delivery of cloud services, ensuring that virtualized resources are dynamically provisioned, on demand.
Thin Client Technology:
The lines between desktop and enterprise computing are blurring due to a shift to thin client technology. HighVail provides its customers with the back-end infrastructure required to support to supports the use of thin clients.
The solutions we implement enable desktop operating systems, applications and data to be managed independently of each other in the data centre. |
