Platform consolidation
Platform consolidation is the strategic approach of streamlining and optimising an organisation’s IT infrastructure. It’s about simplifying and harmonising the hardware, software, and systems underpinning a business’s digital operations.
By bringing together disparate platforms, applications, and resources into a unified ecosystem, platform consolidation aims to enhance efficiency, reduce costs, and improve the overall agility of an organisation’s IT environment.
This transformational process allows businesses to operate more cohesively, enabling continuous communication between different parts of the IT landscape and positioning them to adapt and innovate efficiently in an ever-evolving technological landscape. Here are some benefits of consolidating platforms within your business’ architectural topology.
Integration of diverse systems
This feature enhances collaboration and productivity by simplifying communication and data sharing among systems and teams.
Simplified IT infrastructure
Streamlined processes and reduced complexity improve operational efficiency, reducing downtime and enhancing overall efficiency.
Centralised management
Centralised management leads to more efficient resource monitoring, maintenance, and allocation, ensuring optimal resource utilisation across the organisation.
Cost reduction
By eliminating duplicate systems and reducing resource redundancy, platform consolidation leads to significant cost savings, allowing for strategic investments.
Enhanced security
Centralised security management simplifies implementing and maintaining robust security protocols, resulting in improved overall security.
Scalability

Virtualisation York: frequently asked questions
What is server virtualisation?
Server virtualisation runs several virtual servers on one physical machine. Each virtual server works like a separate computer, but you need less hardware, power and space.
Which virtualisation platforms do you use?
We work with Microsoft Hyper-V and VMware technologies, and recommend the right one for your business.
What is platform consolidation?
Platform consolidation brings different systems together into a simpler, centrally managed IT setup. It reduces costs, improves security and makes your IT easier to scale.
Can virtualisation reduce our IT costs?
Usually, yes. Running fewer physical servers lowers hardware, power and maintenance costs, and makes your systems easier to manage.
Can our older applications run on virtual servers?
Often, yes. Virtualisation can keep legacy applications running on modern hardware while you plan longer-term changes.
