Hyper9, Inc. and Infinite Group, Inc. (OTCBB:IMCI) today
announced a strategic partnership in which Infinite Group, Inc.
(IGI) will provide virtualization management services to the
federal, state and local IT services sector using Hyper9’s
Virtualization Optimization Suite™ (VOS) solution.
Falling tax revenues, which are straining federal and state IT
budgets, and the push for energy-saving technology among
public-sector accounts are driving the uptick in demand for
virtualization in government. However, a recent report by CDW
Government, Inc. indicates that although nearly three-quarters of
federal information technology managers recognize the benefits of
virtualization, just 20 percent say their agencies are harnessing
the technology to its fullest.
The Hyper9-IGI collaboration combines best practices and
leading-edge technology to give IT managers and administrators
better business insights into their virtual infrastructure, and
help government and commercial clients get more out of their
virtualization investments.
Hyper9’s VOS solution inspects, correlates and monitors
configuration, performance, event and historical data across the
virtual infrastructure, combining usability and dashboard features
with in-depth analytics and reporting to help users find and
reclaim virtual resources. Out of the box features including
one-click access to data and common tasks, such as "find VMs," "run
reports,” and "solve VM sprawl,” giving enterprises better
visibility and context to make proactive business decisions.
“The ease with which VMs can be deployed has led to a growing
phenomenon of VM sprawl, increasing the time and expense of
managing virtual environments, and undermining the ROI potential of
virtualization projects,” said Jason Langone, vice president of
Virtualization Services for Infinite Group. “Partnering with Hyper9
will give us key insight into our customers’ virtual environments,
eliminating manual assessments and reporting, and helping them
establish best practices around proactive monitoring and reporting
which can be maintained over time.”
Virtualization and consolidation services represent a key
practice area for Infinite Group in the commercial and government
markets. IGI provides a complete range of virtualization services,
including capacity planning and assessment, server consolidation,
desktop virtualization, application virtualization, Physical to
Virtual migrations (P2V), as well as disaster preparedness and
recovery services.
“Virtualization technology enables organizations to shrink the
size of their IT footprint – the benefits of which include reduced
capital and operating costs, improved continuity of operations and
network security, and better utilization of computing resources,”
said Bill Kennedy, CEO of Hyper9. “We’re excited to partner with
IGI to bring innovative virtualization technology and best
practices to an expanded category of government and commercial
clients.”
