Enabling a Strategic IT Infrastructure.
Virtualization is a key component of our Strategic Innovation initiative. VMware Virtual Infrastructure is a core element in the flexible, cost efficient data center that will take your organization beyond 1st and 2nd generation virtualization...beyond simply achieving a substantial ROI. VI3 will also enable your infrastructure to support:

• IT as a shared utility
• Enterprise-scale management
• Efficiency through simplification and automation
• Optimization of all resources
• Maximized SLAs for all applications

To accomplish those goals, you need more than fast hardware and VMware licenses. You need a strategic architecture that assesses your workload requirements and factors in supporting infrastructure, such as network connectivity, SAN storage, and software license models. We can help ensure a successful implementation, from design to deployment.

Preparing for vSphere and the Virtual Datacenter Operating System (VDCOS).
VMware's flagship product, VMware Infrastructure, coupled with VMware's comprehensive roadmap of groundbreaking new products provide a virtual datacenter OS for IT environments of all sizes. The virtual datacenter OS addresses customers’ needs for flexibility, speed, resiliency and efficiency by transforming the datacenter into an “internal cloud” – an elastic, shared, self- managing and self-healing utility that can federate with external clouds of computing capacity freeing IT from the constraints of static hardware-mapped applications. The virtual datacenter OS guarantees appropriate levels of availability, security and scalability to all applications independent of hardware and location. Just like the single server OS was an indispensable part of the traditional IT stack, the virtual datacenter OS is an indispensable platform for business computing of the future.

W&G can help you take full advantage of the virtual datacenter OS to:

• Automatically manage applications to pre-defined SLAs by providing built in availability, security and performance assurance for all applications.
• Run applications on a highly unified, reliable, efficient infrastructure made up of industry standard components that can be easily replaced
• Move applications with the same service level expectations across on premise or off premise computing clouds for the lowest TCO and highest operational efficiency

W&G's EverythingVirtual™ strategy based on vSphere will enable a dramatically simpler and more efficient model of computing that meet customers’ needs. In this new model, we will help you to define the desired outcomes and the computing infrastructure guarantees these outcomes precisely. Our strategy will help you to efficient provision applications in real-time, specify the applications' service levels, response time, security protection, and availability level, enabling an infrastructure that will deliver and assure these service levels at the lowest possible cost with minimal maintenance effort required.
