Servers are the core to any virtual infrastructure. There is a vast selection of hardware available to clients whose needs balance, often tenuously, on the line of usability versus affordability. Flytrap has the advantage of being partnered with two of the largest server distributors. Between Dell and HP finding a complete solution for any customer is a simple and straightforward process. Whether you are looking for space saving blades or raw computing power we can match your needs to the right hardware. 

 "Choosing information technology (IT) is a high-risk guessing game to some extent because of its strategic nature within organizations and the threat of obsolescence as it turns over rapidly. Because the course of enterprise computing has been dictated by prevailing technologies and expedited by competitive pressures and its strategic significance, complex heterogeneous architectures have become wide spread. The typical enterprise utilizes centralized legacy mainframe and midrange, distributed client server, and is quickly adapting the newest to the mix, Internet/intranet. Moving into each strategy has presented enormous investments in time and new technologies, for which the unsuspecting executive has witnessed ever-shrinking periods of investment payback. Going forward the successful enterprise-computing model will be based on integrated applications and systems, a more manageable architecture that is complemented rather than disturbed by new technologies, and a simplified client device that is independent of the enterprise operating environment."

Flytrap believes that the introduction of VMware's virtualization solutions with the compliment of Storage Area Networks is a leap to solving those issues. The cost associated with the turnover of servers is minimized simply by a reduction in scale of required hardware thanks to virtualization. Reducing ones dependency on physical hardware has the additional benefit of lowering the cost of power and cooling, bringing you closer to being "green". The introduction of VDI (Virtual Desktop Infrastructure) will provide business and education with the means to reduce desktop sprawl with inexpensive client devices.
