Infrastructure Management

What makes C Infinity different is management. We offer a management service to our clients that are based on the concepts of Dynamic Systems Initiative and Optimised Infrastructure. This means that we have build expertise and automation into the network. This reduces the reliance on human operations which are expensive and prone to failure. By reducing these costs and increasing reliability our customers can be sure that their hosted infrastructure is in the very best hands available.

The management infrastructure is based on Microsoft Windows Server 2008 Active Directory. This controls management services and remote administration. The benefits for customers are that we can simplify access by reducing the numbers of user accounts for them to remember to access various systems for remote management and access.

Remote infrastructure monitoring

The monitoring solution is Microsoft’s System Center Operations Manager. This solution allows us to manage a heterogeneous network from a single point and includes hardware, operating systems and server applications. C Infinity clients gain access to the remote monitoring console to view their servers’ health/performance and are automatically alerted if events occur.

C Infinity believes in integrated and seamless management. Machine Virtualisation is managed using Microsoft System Center Virtual Machine Manager. VMM allows this by integrating with Operations Manager to allow cradle-grave management of virtual machines through a single management solution. By reducing our operations complexity, C Infinity can offer a better, more responsive and reliable service to our clients.

Added extra security

Security is increased by providing automated software updates. C Infinity goes through a centralised three-phase process of testing updates before approving them for automated deployment on client servers. C Infinity’s clients can be assured that their servers will be updated in a timely and reliable manner. Anti-Malware is provided to defend against virus, worm, trojan and rootkit threats. This is managed and monitored centrally.

These are all services that you would expect to find in an enterprise network to guarantee the availability, health, performance and security of a server infrastructure. C Infinity offers these services to its managed server hosting clients. The clients will be able to avail of these enterprise-class services at a fraction of the cost of deploying them internally and know that no other service provider offers a service like it in Ireland.
