Virtualisation

As the demands of the business change or grow, IT needs to be able to respond to these quickly and cost effectively. Many people are now using virtualised infrastructures (servers, desktops and storage) to deliver this flexibility and maximise the utilisation of their investment. 

Northdoor are a recognised specialist in virtualising storage environments using IBMs SAN Volume Controller. We have many years of experience of implementing logical partitions on IBM System i and System p mid-range servers and we are VMware partner for windows virtualisation projects.
