Managing a VMware on-premise solution can be fraught with challenges that hinder your business’s growth and efficiency.
RONIN on AWS offers a seamless and powerful alternative, addressing these issues with innovative cloud solutions.
On-Premise Challenge:
Setting up a VMware on-premise solution demands significant upfront investment in hardware, software, and infrastructure that requires foresight and precise forecasting for the future needs of your technical stack as your business grows. Additionally, running and cooling an on-premise data centre then incurs high energy and operational costs, with fixed infrastructure and data centre space that is always on.
RONIN on AWS Solution:
RONIN on AWS eliminates the need for high initial capital expenditure. With a pay-as-you-go model, businesses can scale their costs with usage (in both up and down directions), avoiding large upfront investments and optimising budget allocation.
By migrating to RONIN on AWS, businesses can adopt a greener approach by consuming only the resources they need. This reduces energy consumption and operational costs, as AWS data centres are optimised for energy efficiency and operate on a scalable model. This approach minimises waste and aligns with sustainable practices, offering economies of scale that are difficult to achieve with always-on, fixed infrastructure.
On-Premise Challenge:
On-premise solutions require ongoing management and maintenance, including software updates, hardware repairs, and system monitoring. Managing a VMware on-premise solution requires specialists with expertise in networking, storage, and the entire VMware stack, leading to higher staffing costs. Additionally, on-premise hardware typically has a three-year lifecycle, necessitating regular upgrades and replacements, leading to additional costs and downtime.
RONIN on AWS Solution:
AWS eliminates the need for hardware lifecycle management by providing continuously updated and maintained infrastructure. RONIN on AWS simplifies management through AWS best practice deployment of maintenance and monitoring services provided by AWS. This reduces the need for specialised personnel across different domains and ensures systems are always up-to-date and secure. RONIN’s user-friendly interface further streamlines operations, making it easier for general IT staff to manage and deploy resources without needing deep expertise in specialised areas.
On-Premise Challenge:
Scaling an on-premise VMware environment can be difficult and costly, requiring additional hardware purchases, long procurement cycles and complicated configuration changes.
RONIN on AWS Solution:
AWS offers virtually unlimited scalability, allowing businesses to easily scale resources up or down based on demand. RONIN makes it simple to manage and allocate resources dynamically, ensuring optimal performance without physical hardware adjustments.
On-Premise Challenge:
Maintaining security and compliance in an on-premise environment requires significant effort and expertise.
RONIN on AWS Solution:
AWS provides advanced security features and compliance certifications that are regularly updated to meet industry standards. RONIN leverages these built-in security measures, and augments them with the tools you need to meet high levels of regulatory compliance without the extensive overhead.
On-Premise Challenge:
Proprietary VMware solutions can lead to vendor lock-in, limiting flexibility and increasing costs for future upgrades or changes. Additionally, being locked into a single vendor carries the risk of potential disruptions due to company acquisitions or changes in vendor ownership, which can affect service continuity and support.
RONIN on AWS Solution:
RONIN on AWS provides a flexible and cost-effective solution, with a wide range of compatible services and technologies that are consolidated under the AWS umbrella. This streamlines procurement processes, minimises delays, and simplifies vendor management, allowing businesses to focus on innovation and growth. By leveraging AWS’s robust and diverse ecosystem, businesses mitigate the risks associated with vendor lock-in and are better protected against potential disruptions from vendor ownership changes.
