AWS Virtual Machines

Launch a virtual machine in AWS with the help of our team of experts. We provide guidance snd relevant advice on which AWS cloud deliver models best fit the project requirements. Then quickly create an AWS Windows Virtual Machine on a short of long term basis. AWS also supports a variety of other operating systems such as AWS Linux Virtual Machine or AWS MAC Virtual Machine, so if the application you are looking to utilise requires a specific OS, Vissensa’s expertise can play a part in a successful deployment.

Sadly, many organisations overpay for their cloud deployments because the wrong AWS Cloud delivery model was selected in the design and build phase of the cloud migration. It is then difficult to remove or amend without wasting time, money and resources. Our team sizes and configures AWS Virtual Machine deployments on a daily basis for our clients. So its fair to say, we are highly skilled at designing cloud projects to ensure the appropriate resources are selected to ensure unnecessary costs don’t creep into a configuration without sacrificing flexibility. That means you get the project set up right the first time.

AWS Remote Desktop Services

AWS Remote Desktop Services or Windows 365

Utilising the flexibility of cloud technology, it’s now possible to virtualise many aspects of an organisations IT requirements. As a managed services business and a Microsoft Partner, we see both ends of an organisation’s IT provision. The technical end where on-premise and cloud based servers and storage are supporting the business applications in data centres. Then the front of office consumption of these applications through tools like AWS Remote Desktop services and Windows 365.

Both AWS Remote Desktop services and Windows 365 are designed to simplify the user experience of connecting to colleagues and the AWS cloud service models required for day-to-day tasks.
With Windows 365, the apps used by the business become available on any compatible desktop, laptop or mobile device and as the work is stored in the AWS cloud, it can be picked up from the point it was left off, anywhere. This allows businesses to adapt to secure new ways of working and maintains a great user experience for a more mobile workforce.

AWS Remote Desktop services have been designed to allow a common set of applications from the Microsoft stack to be configured and maintained centrally (in the AWS cloud) enabling a consistent set of applications to be delivered to a user community. Highly configurable, different sets of AWS Remote Desktop services applications can be grouped together so that specific user groups receive only the applications they need, controlling and securing access, simplifying the user’s desktop and reducing unwanted costs from applications or services that are not required.
AWS Cloud delivery models support extends beyond the desktop and will provide the environment to run virtual platforms such as VMware on AWS or AWS Active Directory (AD) which is becoming a popular replacement to on-premise AD setups.

With our managed service experience that can seamlessly operate and maintain your AWS Cloud delivery model deployment, Vissensa is the ideal partner to plan, purchase, install and configuration your AWS environment.

AWS Database Services

Vissensa’s AWS database migration service is a direction many organisations are looking towards due to the added latency and advantages of AWS being off-premise. However, it’s usually a big project and one that requires a lot of thought due to the importance of the data.

Our experts can provide an AWS database migration service to plan your project, install and build your AWS database. You can even trust our team with the AWS database management so you can focus on other tasks.

Storage Services in AWS

Storage Services in AWS

The explosion of the use of storage services in AWS by large and small organisations alike is fuelled by the ability of AWS storage architecture to adapt quickly to any requirement.  Couple this with the fact that AWS storage services are highly available, scalable and a secure place to store business-critical information it makes a lot of sense to choose this option for your needs.

Cloud storage services in AWS offer a range of storage options designed to accommodate many types of files or objects. These options include AWS File storage, AWS’s S3 storage solution used for storing cloud objects, archive AWS data sync and large amounts of data to be used by connected AWS applications. Where analytics of the storage and retrieval of large amounts of data is required, AWS Data Lake, a facility akin to its name, is the solution. Large pools of data can be stored and managed to power business analytics tasks through AWS SQL database, AWS data sync or AWS file storage.

Managing and maintaining data storage services in AWS requires expertise and oversight in order not to endlessly consume more and more space without understanding what data is being stored. It’s imperative to know what AWS storage architecture you are creating so you store the data you need in the right way and not “might be needed”. With governance, compliance, data privacy and retentions rules, having an AWS consulting expert eye on how data and storage are being consumed will save you time, money and ensure the flexibility to use the data how you want n the future. Our team manages and operates hundreds of terabytes of data storage on a daily basis in our own cloud, on-premise and utilising AWS cloud delivery models, so we are an ideal AWS consulting partner to help plan your storage requirements and infrastructure.

AWS Firewall Options

Securing AWS app hosting and infrastructure so that business can operate with the flexibility it needs requires enhanced AWS security capabilities that focus on operability and reliability. AWS Firewall options provide security and support to organisations in order to protect their data and applications.

Cloud is not a silver bullet when it comes to security. Amazon is only responsible for the security of the infrastructure that maintains the cloud, so it’s imperative you protect your own data and applications that flow between your users or other platforms with an AWS firewall.

The AWS Firewall is a stateful Firewall that allows your cloud applications to interact and scale with other services without the need for physical firewall deployments. The stateful capability of the AWS firewall means that the firewall will process and store intelligence about safe connections that your applications make while analysing the inbound and outbound traffic using the rules and policies you have configured.

Not every type of Firewall requirement is available which is where the ability to use AWS Virtual Machines combined with OEM Vendors such as Sonicwall Virtual Firewall bridges the gaps.
Although easy to purchase, the correct setup and configuration via AWS consultants are vital to the security of your business and its data. That’s why Vissensa operates a firewall managed service option with our Physical and Virtual firewall deployments.
Our AWS consulting team have relationships with numerous security vendors and can help identify and install the right solution for your needs.

AWS Backup and AWS Disaster Recovery Strategy

The ability to recover systems and data successfully when an organisations services become unavailable is usually a hindsight moment for businesses who don’t have an AWS disaster recovery strategy. Immediate financial loss, reduced customer confidence, reputational damage and lost data intelligence are just a few of the consequences.
Maintaining the infrastructure on which to build a cohesive backup and recovery plan has always been a big financial commitment. However, the introduction of AWS backup and disaster recovery services removed the barriers of cost and complexity in developing a strategy to support any size of business. It has removed the need to spend Capex on equipment that is only used in the event of a failure.

AWS backup and AWS disaster recovery services are a fast and cost effective way of ensuring that business continuity can be maintained for the critical services that keep a business running. With the added advantage that it can be scaled up or down quickly to respond to market conditions.

AWS IoT Architecture

AWS IoT Architecture

The explosion of computing devices that can send and receive data are powering new customer on-demand services and data intelligence. This has created a seismic shift in the way data is processed. The “Internet of Things” consumes a vast amount of compute, storage and communications, leading to the advent of edge computing services such as AWS IoT. These services are designed to allow more of the processing to be carried out closer to the point of demand, speeding up the delivery of content and information to a user.

Vissensa can help you implement powerful applications that integrate with connected devices with AWS IoT architecture. We can devise a solution with your lines of business to assist with delivering content and receiving data intelligence quicker via edge computing methods.

AWS Optimisation

AWS Optimisation

Flexibility in IT can really transform a business, but if the services that are being consumed become too big or too sprawling, there is a real danger that an organisation can be spending time and money running services that don’t support the business.

Alternatively, they may have been outmoded by new services coming on stream. Vissensa’s AWS optimisation service can build a picture of what services are consuming AWS technology and determine where efficiencies can be made and ensure AWS cost optimisation.

AWS cost optimisation may include reviewing existing instances as well as determining the size and shape of service schedules for migration. Our AWS team will work closely with you to ensure you get the most from your AWS App and Infrastructure investment.
