 | IT Simplification
Many organizations are faced with the issue of trying to address the spiraling complexity of managing its IT environment. Data continues to explode. Floor space, power and cooling are the constraints of the future as organizations deploy more applications and servers. IT Simplification is the answer. Champion can help you architect, implement, and manage your IT Simplification strategy – consolidating and containing your resources – dramatically reducing the costs and complexity of managing your IT environment.
- Get out of today’s server sprawl model and reduce space, power, and cooling needs before they exceed data center limits or expansion thresholds.
- Design and implement a Disaster Recovery plan that can be implemented and managed with the existing staff and will meet the Service Level Agreements set by the corporation.
- Develop a management and data center automation plan. Server virtualization can lower hardware costs and simplify tasks like provisioning, but it does not make system management more efficient, alone.
Our goal is to optimize and simplify existing IT infrastructures without jeopardizing existing business routines. Our server and storage consolidation solutions include:
- Centralization of multiple application workloads in the same server: For enhanced inventory accuracy, improved security, streamlined system management and reduced cost.
- Physical consolidation: For improved application throughput and performance, greater scalability, increased system efficiency and reduced cost.
- Integration of data from multiple sources in a single repository: For reduced cost of ownership, increased data availability, improved security and shorter time to market.
- Application integration: For optimal system performance and resource utilization, enhanced reliability and availability, reduced cost and increased scalability for future growth.
Virtualization Strategies
Virtualization helps you take back control of your infrastructure. That's because virtualization enables you to see and manage your computing resources in ways that offer more flexibility; you're not being restricted by implementation, location or physical packaging. With virtualization, you have a logical rather than a physical view of data, computing power, storage capacity and other resources. By gaining greater control of your infrastructure, you can improve cost management. While cost saving is a primary driver for initial virtualization deployment, the full value of virtualization lies in its ability to improve total cost of ownership (TCO), increase flexibility and enable access through shared infrastructure.

Storage Networking
Businesses across America face a daunting IT challenge: What to do with data accumulated over months or years of operations. This process of accumulation never ends. Stockpiled data puts extreme pressure on IT infrastructures, capital budgets and capacity management. Businesses need easy access to their data, plus scalability and reliability in their storage systems, to remain competitive.
