Virtualization
Virtualization provides a means of creating a 'Virtual' machine on a host operating system. With this it becomes possible to run 'Many' computers from a single computer hardware. This leads to a lot of savings on the hardware costs and also on space, since only one server machine can run multiple operating systems. To the users these systems appear as many different systems. The users do not even notice that they are all working from the same compter hardware
Virtualization offers many advantages as follows
- Only One server Machine can run multiple Operatig Systems
- It is possible to take 'Snap Shots' of the state of the guest O.S.
- In case of O.S. crash, it is possible to quickly restore the O.S. with the latest snap shot
- This leard to a considerable saving in time, effort
- The virtual machines can be seamlessly migrated from one server hardware to another
We at NOESiS Consultancy, have technology, to create Hardware independent Linux Host O.S. installation. This installation hosts the 'guests'. In case of the hardware failure, the O.S. disk can be removed from the existing hardware and connected to some other newer or older, similar or dissimilar hardware. The host O.S. and therefore all the guests also start without complaining. This means that you do not have to wait for your hardware to be repaired or replaced, which in some cases can take upto weeks!
This technology is available only with NOESiS Consultancy as of now. Please contact us for details
