project background

alt text

Every year, the development vector of data centers shifts toward providing cloud services to expand their capabilities and provide them with a competitive advantage. And their customers can use cutting-edge technologies without having to worry about the cost of infrastructure and its maintenance, as well as the ability to scale resource consumption to meet their needs.

Datacenter Parkovyi has engaged the Netwave team to update and expand the datacenter’s existing technological capabilities in order to provide its customers with more opportunities to use cloud resources and services.

task immersion

The main task at hand was to launch IaaS and BaaS services to the market and lay the groundwork for future cloud architecture services such as Disaster Recovery, SaaS, PaaS, and Hosted Private Cloud.

solutions

Our customer chose Dell equipment to build the cloud infrastructure, including the Dell VxRail software and hardware complex and network switches. Based on that complex, a hyperconvergent infrastructure was built using VMware’s Enterprise class virtualization technologies.

result

The problem of a painful transition from the old architecture to the new one is solved by the solution based on the most recent stack of products. It introduces a new architectural approach to developing public clouds. For all cloud service providers who utilize older versions of NSX and vCloud Director, this problem is currently urgent.

technical results:

  • building hyperconvergent infrastructure computing platform

  • deployment of Dell VxRail software and hardware complex

  • implementation of VMware Cloud solutions based on it

    • server virtualization (vSphere)
    • storage virtualization (vSAN), network layer virtualization (NSX-T)
    • vRealize family monitoring and automation tools (LogInsight, Operations Manager, Orchestrator, TenantApp)
    • and a tool that allows building a cloud environment (Cloud Director)
  • Veeam Backup & Replication is used to extend the functionality, namely Backup-as-a-Service

new business opportunities

versatility

One of the solution’s main benefits and features is its software-defined data center, or SDDC. It provides a versatile implementation of solutions and architectures on a single hardware platform.

automation

A wide range of tools and mechanisms for automating same-type tasks, or vice versa—the ability to build complex deployments based on pre-prepared infrastructure blocks.

agility

Bringing new services to market in less time.
