Acquisition and consolidation of hardware is accorded the same priority as software, staffing and service. There are many hidden issues that could crop up due to over consolidation, but on the other hand, the performance of the company could also be affected when over-emphasizing on consolidation.

Innovative Network Solutions helps minimize risks, assess hardware and combine applications and workloads to maintain the high levels of services our customers offer. Our planning and sizing team uses analytical modeling capabilities to size and evaluate options, and plan for configurations which will best support the environment. Our experts look at various parameters before arriving at recommendations: the location of the hardware, utilization capacity, comparable host workloads, operating systems of similar makes and levels, service outage windows, security policies, and the profile of users and their usage habits.

Innovative Network Solutions specializes in CRM implementation and has worked with several companies in conducting sizing assessment and providing performance management services.
