VMware Virtualisation

VMware technology allows you to harness the impressive benefits from virtualisation of your computer environment.

Frontline Consultancy are an accredited VMware Partner and experts in VMware virtualisation. We have worked with many organisations - helping them to realise the benefits virtualising an IT environment can bring.




What is virtualisation software?

In essence, virtualisation transforms hardware into software. VMware ESX Server software transforms or “virtualises” the hardware resources of an x86-based computer—including the CPU, RAM, hard disk and network controller—to create a fully functional virtual machine that can run its own operating system and applications just like a “real” computer.

Multiple virtual machines share hardware resources without interfering with each other, so you can safely run several operating systems and applications at the same time on a single computer.

Overview of virtualisation
VMware inserts a layer of software directly on the computer hardware or on a host operating system. This software layer creates virtual machines and contains a virtual machine monitor that allocates hardware resources dynamically and transparently so that multiple operating systems can run concurrently on a single physical computer.

VMware Software

VMware products provide a range of solutions designed to create a virtual computing environment.

Today’s powerful x86 computer hardware was originally designed to run only a single operating system and a single application, but virtualisation breaks that bond, making it possible to run multiple operating systems and multiple applications on the same computer at the same time, increasing the utilisation and flexibility of hardware.

The net result is higher utilisation rates, higher availability and lower costs.

However, virtualising a single physical computer is just the beginning. VMware offers a robust virtualisation platform that can scale across hundreds of interconnected physical computers and storage devices to form an entire virtual infrastructure.
