Get efficient. Get converged.

Rather than sinking more resources into legacy technology, why not use this year’s budget to optimize your IT infrastructure? A new converged infrastructure can help you maximize efficiency and minimize your data center’s footprint.

Converged infrastructures treat storage, network and computing as one unit. Though they are physically separate, the components are managed from a single interface, saving time and increasing responsiveness.

Strike the right balance for your business.

Converged infrastructures are the perfect middle ground when it comes to data center transformation. They offer a good balance between the flexibility of traditional infrastructures and the efficiency of hyperconverged platforms.

Components in a converged infrastructure do not have to be from the same vendor. This gives you more flexibility in vendor choice. Plus, you can scale, repair or replace individual components without affecting the whole unit.

What are the benefits of convergence?

Since the components in a converged system are managed through a unified interface, converged clients also enjoy unified support. The component manufacturers work together to answer support requests, rather than passing the end user off to one of the other manufacturers.

Along with integrated support, other benefits of a converged infrastructure include:

  • Validated designs & architectures
  • Advanced management tools to simplify operations
  • Easy management & more predictable operational spending
  • Increased IT responsiveness & shorter deployment cycles

Our partnerships and expertise drive business forward.

We partner with leading convergence technology companies like Cisco, NetApp, Pure Storage and VMware, and can help you implement their solutions in the best configuration for your organization. As an IT solutions expert, we provide:
