branches control from headquarter via vCenter

2012-01-28T23:12:39Z

I have client who has headquarter and 5 branches. In every branch there are 3 hosts ( 2 dual proces. & 1 single proces). He wants to control them from the headquarter through virtualization. I suggest Vshere 5 essentials plus kit Retail and branches and One vCenter Standard to manage all branches from the headquarter.He wants mainly HA and vMotion features. But this solution is so expensive. If there is another solution that he can reach his target, please suggest.

thanks

Remote/Branch Office Challenges Solved

2011-11-04T14:17:31Z

Does your organization have multiple locations that generate mission critical data?

Are the requirements different from the “traditional" data center. Limited space for your IT infrastructure, limited or no onsite support personnel, consistent uptime and management complexity are just a few of the challenges multi-site environments face.

Learn how leading retailers, energy companies and many others have implemented robust VMware environments in their multi-site environments without the limitations of traditional approaches.

A European energy company implemented a virtualization strategy using StorMagic’s SvSAN “virtual SAN” technology into their wind turbine control systems, which brought the flexibility and simplicity they needed while still delivering high availability and performance to mission critical applications

Attend this informative 45 minute webinar to learn how you can begin testing your multisite configuration. We will discuss:

- Common issues faced in multisite environments

- Best Practices for virtualization in these environments

- Case studies in energy, POS and government sites
