Microsoft Server Virtualization with Hyper-V 

Save thousands of dollars on energy costs by "Going Green" with server virtualization and server consolidation.

Start your own "Green Initiative" by using virtualization with your technology. Consolidate your servers or run additional ones, possibly using the same hardware you have now, with Microsoft Hyper-V virtualization technology.  

Don't think virtualization can make a difference? 

Look at the chart below to see what would happen if we just consolidated 10 stand-alone servers with one Hyper-V server.

This consolidation also can help with ever-increasing space demands.   As businesses in Detroit, Ann Arbor and throughout the Michigan counties of Washtenaw, Livingston, and Oakland are finding, business space can be one of their top 3 expenditures.  Decrease the amount of space you need in Detroit or Ann Arbor by using virtualization instead.

Can My Small Business Use Virtualization?

TAZ Networks default Small Business Server 2008 installation is done with virtualization. Why would we do this? Flexibility and recovery. Now we can easily move your server to another piece of hardware in the event of either disaster or downtime.  No more reinstalling needed. Just simply move the virtual server and you are done. Another case of technology giving your Michigan business a higher path to excellence.

A secondary reason why your small business would want to start a project with virtualization is for ease of growth. If you start with the right equipment today based on virtualization, you will easily be able to add another server if needed for your small business to grow into a midsize one.

Why Use TAZ Networks For My Virtualization Project?

TAZ Networks is proficient in the use of Hyper-V virtualization technology. Our standard install of servers as we mentioned above is now done using this technology. We have encountered various scenarios that will make your installation easier and cost effective. Businesses in our service area of Detroit and Ann Arbor Michigan along with the counties of Washtenaw, Oakland, and Livingston are seeing the direct benefits of using virtualization in their environment.  Contact us today!
