Virtualization and Workload Management.

The goal for these software solution offerings is to enable customers consolidate servers, simplify management and reduce data centre costs via open source virtualisation, while increasing performance and ensuring high availability of their crucial business services.

To achieve these goals Novell combines its SUSE Linux Enterprise Server and XEN platforms with its PlateSpin solutions – ie Orchestrate, Recon, Migrate, Protect & Forge. As a result Novell is the only virtualisation vendor that provides a complete infrastructure for virtualisation, workload management and Life-cycle management all from one technology supplier.

Novell also offers unique support for Windows Server consolidation – as Microsoft officially recommends SUSE Linux Enterprise Server with integrated Xen for customers with Windows and Linux in their data centres. As a result Novell offers a competitive and compelling open source alternative to many other vendor offerings.
Securelinx engineers have been working with Xen based hypervisor technologies for many years and are also PlateSpin product Certified – to ensure that any customer solution integration requirements are professionally deployed and supported.

So if your organisation needs to address server efficiencies and lower its data centre costs, then Novell’s unique Data Centre offerings for virtualisation and workload management are worthy of consideration.
