Virtualization

Virtualization allows for a single server or set of servers to run multiple operating system instances. Efficiency counts, and virtualization is the way to get the maximum value out of on-premises or cloud servers.

Dominant Systems offers expert virtualization-related services that can maximize the value of your on-premises or cloud servers. Services available include turnkey server solutions using server hardware from HPE, OS upgrades, virtual server management, disaster recovery, and support for Linux/UNIX and Windows servers and desktops.

We put virtualization to work internally and for clients starting in 2003. At that time we were running a small server farm using individual PC systems to crawl internet retailers for product information. We ended up replacing the 32 individual PCs with 4 servers running VMware. We have been running VMware for many years after that, and when Microsoft released their Hyper-V hypervisor, we started installing systems based on that as well.

Today we support VMware’s vSphere product line, Microsoft Hyper-V and the open source hypervisor Proxmox VE.
