Network and server I/O was originally designed for static environments where servers run just one application. The problem with today’s server I/O is time, cost, and complexity. Fixed I/O resources such as cards, cables, and switches cause applications to become locked to servers. Even simple moves, additions, and changes become week-long projects that require co-ordination between multiple groups. This creates a major limitation as organisations migrate to fully virtualised data centres where resources are required on-demand. Increasingly organisations are turning to the Network & Server I/O to drive further cost savings from within the data centre.

Nebulas Virtualise’s Network & Server I/O Virtualisation solutions are the ideal compliment to server virtualisation and can eliminate up to 70% of the network and server I/O cabling. This enables network and server I/O to be quickly configured without disruption. This allows organisations to adapt their infrastructures on the fly.

This results in a far more responsive infrastructure where changes become far easier to implement, applications can be provisioned with exact connectivity they need in seconds rather than days or weeks. Software re-cabling eliminates the need to enter the data centre making a truly lights-out data centre a reality.
