Managed hosting virtual infrastructure

Virtualisation is a technology which benefits most enterprise hosting requirements. This essentially allows a single server do the job of multiple servers, by sharing its resources across multiple environments.

Virtual servers and virtual machines let you host multiple operating systems and multiple applications locally and in remote locations, freeing you from physical and geographical limitations.

In addition to great environmental benefits, you get high availability of resources, better management, increased security, and improved disaster recovery processes when you host in a virtual infrastructure.

• Server Consolidation and Infrastructure Optimisation: Virtualisation makes it possible to achieve significantly higher resource utilisation by pooling common infrastructure resources and breaking the legacy 'one application to one server' model.



• Increased Application Availability & Improved Business Continuity: Eliminate planned downtime and recover quickly from unplanned outages with the ability to securely backup and migrate entire virtual environments with minimal or no interruption in service.



• Improved Manageability & Security: Deploy, manage and monitor application within secure environments that end users can access locally or remotely.

Hosting resources on TAP

The virtual hosting infrastructure is a dynamic allocation of physical resources to application requirements. While a virtual machine represents the physical resources of a single computer, a virtual infrastructure represents the physical resources of the entire hosting environment, aggregating servers and their attached network and storage into a unified pool of resources available on demand.

• Single-node hypervisors to enable full virtualisation of each host server.



• A set of distributed system infrastructure services to optimise available resources among virtual machines.



• Automation solutions that handle special capabilities to optimise a particular process such as provisioning or disaster recovery.

By detaching the software environment from its underlying hardware infrastructure, virtualisation enables the aggregation of multiple servers, storage infrastructure and networks into shared pools of resources that can be delivered dynamically, securely and reliably to applications as needed.

The virtual hosting infrastructure supports high levels of utilisation, availability, automation and flexibility.
