Virtualization of Services

Virtualization of our DataCenter

Hi everyone!

In this post we are going to introduce the different options that we have in order to implement virtualization in our financial DataCenter, following all the requirements explained in the previous post.

To meet all these requirements, we have researched the recommendations that our providers suggest, Dell for servers and Juniper Networks for network and security systems.

DELL's recommendations:

Starting with the recommendations of our server vendor, we have seen that Dell appliances recommend virtualization with one of the following vendors: Microsoft, VMware, Red Hat, or Citrix. Among all the options, the best for Dell is the VMware virtualization option, on the other hand, Red Hat option has a best cost-efficiency margin. Although it is an attractive option, its implementation with Red Hat is relatively new, while VMware has more than 10 years of experience.

For this reason, the best option is to implement virtualization with VMware vSphere, which offers great quality of service without being complex or expensive.

Juniper's recommendations:

Juniper offers virtualization focused on the access network and security, offering options to be able to virtualize routers and separate logical segments, virtualize switches to connect or segment the network in a scalable way.

This option is called Network Functions Virtualization (NFV): This technology allows us to reduce the cost of physical devices, implementation and maintenance thanks to its automated and simple processes. It is an open-platform, allowing a its integration with other devices from other manufacturers providing more flexibility to provide services, including intelligent services or software-defined networks (SDN) and, finally, flexibility to choose the right components for each needs or business, offering the best components also in terms of security.
