Not Meeting Expectations The vast majority of companies have succeeded to deploy virtual technologies within their environment, with the hope of garnering all its bountiful rewards. Unfortunately, the majority of these deployments were done on a very limited or isolated basis yielding minimal returns to the business.
Even those companies that publicize the deployment of hundreds or even thousands of virtual machines (VM) have mostly done so within the boundaries of test & development, web services, and non-production-based applications. The rationale for this occurrence is two-fold:
1. The instability of deploying new technologies can be a daunting challenge for even the most die-hard virtualization specialists. 2. The expectations of virtualization will fail if deployed as a stand-alone technology. Virtualization must be part of a larger IT operations strategy to be successful. These factors have diminished the most aggressive deployment plans, reduced financial expectations, and in some situations, created outages and excessive consulting budgets. Considering the overwhelming benefits of an effective virtualization program, it’s imperative that companies implement a comprehensive strategy to avoid being washed away by their competition.

VMaudit.com Extend Beyond TechnologyThe benefits of virtualization are directly proportional to the proliferation and effectiveness of the technology, and it's supporting infrastructure. In other words the more you deploy VMs and effectively managed their operational environment, the more financial benefits you will achieve. However, an effective audit must go beyond the realm of technology and identify critical resources, budgets, and operational risks: From a virtualization perspective an audit must include storage, network, disaster recovery, applications and tools. From an operational perspective a truly comprehensive audit must include service support processes, staffing, project planning & management controls. Not only should each of these attributes be audited for business risks, but benchmarked to best practices with the appropriate remediation plans to resolves such issues. At VMaudit.com we have the experience and expertise required to deliver this level of service, irrespective of your current virtualization maturity level, company size, or scope. |
