Modern Infrastructure

What is it?

Hyper-converged infrastructure (HCI) combines common datacenter hardware using locally attached storage resources with intelligent software to create flexible building blocks that replace legacy infrastructure consisting of separate servers, storage networks, and storage arrays. Benefits include lower TCO, increased performance, and greater productivity within IT teams. Let CompuNet guide you to the best HCI solution to meet your needs.

CompuNet HCI solutions are built on the industry’s most popular hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) technologies— complete, 100% software-defined stack that integrates compute, virtualization, storage, networking, and security to power any application, at any scale. Then, connected cloud services unify IT operations and bring frictionless application mobility across different cloud environments.

How does it work?

HCI converges the entire datacenter stack, including compute, storage, storage networking, and virtualization. Complex and expensive legacy infrastructure is replaced by a platform running on turnkey, industry-standard servers from our top manufacturer partners that enable enterprises to start small and scale a node at a time. Software running on each server node distributes all operating functions across the cluster for superior performance and resilience.

So many choices, which is best?

Nearly all modern hyperconverged infrastructure solutions are 100% software-defined, with no dependency on proprietary hardware. Each HCI node in a cluster runs a hypervisor (AVMware ESXi, Microsoft Hyper-V, Nutanix AHV, or KVM), and the HCI control features run as a separate virtual machine on every node, forming a fully distributed fabric that can scale resources with the addition of new nodes. With this in mind, allow CompuNet to come in and discuss your needs and goals and start to design the right HCI solution to match!
