Avalon Data Systems are Experts in installation and support of virtualization technology from Microsoft & VMware.
What is Virtualization?
Virtualization refers to the act of creating a virtual (rather than actual) version of something, including but not limited to a virtual computer hardware platform, operating system (OS), storage device, or computer network resources.
Virtualization addresses IT’s most pressing challenge: the cost of IT infrastructure that can consume IT departments budget’s into maintenance, leaving limited or no resources for business-building innovation.
The term Virtualization generally makes customers and CxO’s think of the server estate. But with the proliferation of new and exciting technology in both hardware and more importantly software arena, new virtualization solutions are allowing customers to get more utilisation and deliver additional services with less capital investment costs. Some of the new virtualization technologies that are now in the market are the following:
- Server Virtualization
- Network Virtualization
- Desktop Virtualization
- Application Virtualization
- Storage Virtualization
So Why Would Organisations benefit from moving to a virtual environment?
You can create a more agile and adaptive IT infrastructure, reduce the total cost of IT ownership and minimise downtime. There are many benefits that virtualization can offer to your organisation and they apply to all the elements of your IT infrastructure: servers, operating systems, data storage and software applications.
Data Storage is needed more and more in the modern era, from documents and images to email and videos. Whatever the data is, it needs to be stored for prolonged periods of time due to compliance. Regardless if you are a publically traded company or operating within a highly regulated industry, the standard has been set high for compliance and security.
Storage solutions for any given company should be reflexive and ever expanding like the company in question. Data is the key factor to growth. When handling sensitive data, the need for enhancing the storage capabilities are paramount. Considering how with the growth in data the enterprise also grows, data security and consolidation needs to be functioning at optimum efficiency. With the constant evolution of storage needs in mind, Avalon provides potent solutions for not just small business owners but also large-scale enterprises. Here are some of the services that we offer.

Providing High Quality Business Telephone Systems
Are you considering a new telephone system? If so, where do you start? There is a wide and varied selection to choose from with a myriad of different companies. Avalon installs and supports multiple types of telephone systems for small to medium sized businesses across United Arab Emirates and can help you to find the right system to suit your business needs.
Integrated Office Telephone Systems
Many large companies have been linking their computer, fax, office telephone system, and mobile phones together for some time now. The benefits include giving caller information to the person who answers the telephone allowing them to be more professional and efficient. Returning calls can be done at a touch of a button on the computer. When you are busy a caller can be redirected to voicemail and these messages can be set to alert the user in many ways, including email. For busy users on the move the system can even be used to read their emails to them.
This approach provides information quickly and has helped removing mundane job tasks; however some organisations want to simplify things still further. They want to give one number for team members to be contacted on, whether they are in the office, on the move or working from home; and they want this to be easy to use and good value. Because of advances in technology all these features and many more are now available.
Voice over IP (VoIP)
Voice over IP, or VoIP for short uses the same cables and systems that run your computers, to run your phone system. For new sites and organisations spread over multiple sites or countries, it can bring large cost savings through reduced installation costs, reduced call costs and improved flexibility.
The cost of these systems need not be any more than the equivalent conventional system and this is the reason why so many companies are now adopting them.
At Avalon we do cost effective Telephony Solution from Alcatel, Avaya & Cisco.

Regardless of where you store your data, loss or contamination can happen to anyone. Hardware fails and files can get deleted by accident. Most businesses create large amounts of digital data on a continuous basis. Without backing up your data your business can easily find itself in a crisis.

At Avalon we understand the value of your data. As your business experiences growth, your digital data grows with it.
