Many companies are considering virtual networks in order to address space or power consumption requirements. However, a migration from a physical to a virtual network requires careful analysis and review, especially in a regulated environment. Court Square has been working with virtual networks in regulated environments for many years. We understand the special requirements necessary for a virtual environment to comply with FDA or other regulations. Court Square can deliver a comprehensive suite of these services or individually on an ala carte basis.

Installation
An installation of VMWare software that has been purchased by the client.

Assessment
This service can be valuable before the purchase of VMWare. We perform a thorough review of the server infrastructure, followed by capacity recommendations for maximized performance of new virtual servers. We study the network for thirty days to gather data and make recommendations as to potential virtualization scenarios with an estimated financial analysis.

Design and Implementation
Court Square’s certified VMWare consultants will design and implement a virtual environment complete with process and procedures. We offer client’s the choice of managing the virtual environment themselves or entering into a managed service relationship with Court Square. The environment will be ready for the installation of applications or data transfer. If you are a life sciences company, the environment will be qualified under FDA regulations.

Physical to Virtual Migration
This final step installs appropriate applications and transfers data to the new virtual environment. The applications are qualified under FDA regulations as required.
