Virtualization and Cloud

 

Experts in servers and network managed services for over 20 years, we support you in the evolution of your data centres: expansive virtualization, transition to private cloud networks and cloud hybridization.

Supporting the evolution of your hosting solutions

Involved in data centre outsourcing services since the 2000s, our Consortis experts have built up the group’s Windows server, Unix, AIX, Cisco and Checkpoint skill sets.

Very early on, they were involved in virtualization (VMWare) and platform management (Linux in particular) projects, and they have developed our know-how in terms of infrastructure migration and rationalization, which now also includes issues of optimizing energy resource consumption.

 

In a context of significant inflation, particularly concerning energy prices, fine-tuned management of virtualization and Cloud is becoming a major key to financial savings for corporate infrastructures, which must be concerned with power optimization.

Benjamin CROMBE | Practice Leader Cloud & DevOps

Since the arrival of the cloud, Consort Group has been implementing private cloud solutions (OpenStack and OpenShift) and public cloud solutions (AZURE, IBM Cloud and AWS).

Our goal: accompany you in the evolution and optimization of your hybrid environments (mixed On-Premises and Cloud provider):

  • Development of containerization,
  • Migration of applications from on-premises systems to the cloud,
  • Management of operations on combined on-premises and cloud environments.

Each of these projects, when necessary, also include questions about the impact of using Edge type solutions.

Virtualization and Containerization

Virtualization and Containerization

Faire cohabiter vos hébergements On-Premise (majoritairement Red Hat et VMWare), et vos systèmes legacy avec des infrastructures conteneurisées (cloud ou infrastructures physiques) a un impact potentiellement important sur vos organisations de votre run.

Nous vous proposons des modèles de delivery évolutifs permettant de garantir vos maitrises des coûts, de maintenir la qualité de service et d’accompagner l’évolutivité des infrastructures et de leur performance.

L’objectif : piloter virtualisation et conteneurisation sans avoir à dupliquer les équipes ni à multiplier les outils avec des possibilités de structuration, externalisation voire offshoring.

Cloud

Consort Group propose des missions d’intégration et de pilotage d’applications dans le cloud (AZURE, AWS, IBM Cloud et GCP) :

  • Gestion des accès et de la sécurité sur des Cloud,
  • Gestion des applications hébergées sur le Cloud (monitoring, analyse des logs, finops),
  • Maîtrise des environnements virtualisés ou conteneurisés chez un cloud provider.

L’objectif : vous accompagner sur les évolutions induites par le marché des cloud provider et des cloud souverains et ses impacts :

  • Pérennisation des services utilisés,
  • Simplification de la gestion des environnements,
  • Mise en perspective des évolutions tarifaires sur les périodes récentes.

Move to cloud

Definition of hosting needs

Moving from an On-Premises system to the Cloud, virtualization or containerization is a technical and a human adventure. Our architects will provide support for your decision making with their knowledge of source and target architectures, their know-how in change management and transformation of technical architectures.

Training and Certification for teams

Adapting behaviours, tools and intervention methods are just as essential as maintaining skills in the expected technologies. We provide you with our training and coaching methods to ensure the development of a strong DevOps culture within your communities.

Capacity planning / cost control

Among the first advantages of cloud technologies, is controlling costs, and the assignment of a management key for each resource used by an application... Our cloud experts will define the financial management models and capabilities of your new infrastructures.

Our expertise

Our experts and consultants benefit from more than 50 adhoc training courses all the advantages of our DevOps Institute with which to complete their technical skills. Mainly based in France, Portugal and Morocco, they provide local technical assistance or work from our service centre.
