ArticlesCharon solutions from Stromasys enable businesses to maintain their critical applications by moving them, unmodified, off of legacy hardware and onto modern, standard x86 servers.
Companies still rely on mission-critical applications running on their classic VAX, Alpha, HP 3000, and SPARC systems. As time goes on, the maintenance costs for these systems go up, and due to their age, reliability declines. Furthermore, these systems introduce risks to the business since they don’t fit within new disaster recovery paradigms, and the machines are at risk of data loss and excessive downtime in the case of an outage. But full migration or rewriting of these applications is an expensive, drawn-out, and risky proposition – and that’s where cross-platform server virtualization comes in.
With Stromasys, you simply swap out your end-of-life classic hardware and move your entire software stack to the new virtualized environment – increasing performance, lowering cost, and reducing risk – all at once, and in a matter of days. VAX, Alpha, and SPARC emulation solutions from Stromasys enable businesses to establish continuity and move forward while maintaining time-testing applications.
Stromasys Cross-Platform Server Virtualization presents an alternative to full migration and searching for used parts: simply swap out your end-of-life classic hardware and move your software stack to a newly virtualized environment – increasing performance, lowering cost, and reducing risk. Stromasys has the ability to serve its clients globally with its products, services, and support that make virtualization not only easy and low-cost, but the smartest way forward.
