Virtualize Everything!

As business demands are shifting, end-users need access anywhere, anytime and to any device. Server virtualization changed how we architect, deploy and manage a data center. VMware transformed the way IT thinks!

With VMware's industry-leading desktop platform, consumers are now able to modernize their desktops by moving them into a cloud and delivering them as a service. Your process become automated and efficient, your security is increased and your total cost of desktop ownership can be reduced by up to 50%.

The next generation data centers are focused on consolidation, centralization, efficiency, flexibility and scalability, while at the same time providing end-users with a rich, consistent and high performance experience anywhere, anytime and to any device. VMware is the platform for this next generation data center and continues to reinvent themselves and improve upon already game-changing solutions.

Recent Accomplishments

IP Pathways was ranked no.16 by Everything Channel on the Fast Growth 100 list which recognizes the fastest growing solution providers in North America. In addition to this recognition, IP Pathways was chosen as winner of the 2011 Best Virtualization Practice Award from CRN.

Imagine Virtually AnythingTM

Collaborating to Deliver the Dynamic Data Center

VMware, Cisco and NetApp have announced an alliance to tackle the complexity that virtualization has brought to the data center. They have teamed up to offer the industry's first end-to-end secure multi-tenancy solution for virtual environments.

Server and desktop virtualization has changed everything and the data center is transforming. We all remember the old distributed computing model with one server per application and desktops and laptops housing critical sensitive data and even applications. The IT infrastructures architected for this old model was built around heterogeneous silos of servers and storgage systems and this resulted in poor utilization and isolated resources.

VMware, Cisco and NetApp now TOGETHER are able to redefine the data center futher by offering a complete end-to-end solution to virtualize the data center. Virtual infrastructure software from VMware, unified storage from NetApp and unified computing solutions from Cisco have come together to deliver more efficiency and reduce costs even further.

  • Cisco Unified Computing System (UCS) reduces the number of network switches and integrates compute resources around a unified I/O fabirc.
  • NetApp® unified storage architecture supports multiple protools (CIFS, NFS, iSCSI, FC and FCoE) as well as primary, secondary and archive storage with a single platform.
  • VMware vSphereTM and View 4 provides the platform for infrastructure and desktop virtualization. VMware vCenterTM provides the universal hub to centrally manage all virtualized server, network and storage resources.


This all comes together into a single unified architecture of dynamic resource pools. This unified virtualized architecture allows organization to effectively run everything form mission-critical applications to enterprise-wide desktops.

  • Virtualization of everything allows for consolidation of servers by a 10-to-1 ratio, eliminate 90% of network ports and cables and use up to 50% less storage through NetApp's data deduplication techonogy.
  • End-to-end Ethernet reduces complexity and cost with a tested and proven 10GbE virtualized data center solution. SAN, NAS and LAN traffic can all be supported on a "single wire" without compromising performance or security.
  • Centralized management of server, network and storage resources from a "single pain of glass" within VMware vCenter reduces complexity.
