How can virtualization replace a traditional physical machine?

In an ever-changing digital environment, many companies face major problems: rigid infrastructures, high security risks and inefficient management of workstations that do not meet the requirements for speed and flexibility. These difficulties result in increased complexity in deployment, insufficient responsiveness to incidents and high operational costs.

It is in this context that Wisper 360 is positioned as a complete and innovative solution, capable of radically transforming the management of workstations. Wisper 360integrates with traditional physical workstations in companies through an all-in-one solution, with essential modules such as Wisper Core, Wisper Manager and Wisper Repository Service (WRS). These modules allow to optimize the security, performance and flexibility of IT infrastructure management, thus responding directly to the problems encountered by companies in their digital transformation.

Virtualization Simplified infrastructure, activity assured

Companies using physical workstations often face major challenges. On the one hand, they must invest in a dedicated server architecture to support application operation, which makes the deployment and evolution of infrastructure particularly expensive and complex. On the other hand, in case of acyber-attack, physical stations require laborious manual interventions, resulting in extended downtime and additional costs, directly impacting business continuity.

With Wisper 360, these constraints disappear. The solution eliminates the need for a dedicated server infrastructure to operate the Masters, thus drastically simplifying the deployment and the rise in load. Moreover, in case of an incident, Wisper 360 offers a rapid remediation that ensures an almost immediate resumption of activities, eliminating long periods of downtime and significantly reducing the costs associated with manual interventions.

Redefining security and performance through virtualization

The security and performance issues are the main concerns of companies using physical workstations. These systems are vulnerable to unauthorized modifications, exposing the company to malicious and data compromise risks. In addition, the quality of service management and network stability remain major challenges, especially in the absence of integrated solutions to optimize traffic or automatically switch to the cloud in case of unavailability. In addition, physical security often relies on manual interventions to apply updates and configure advanced protection measures, making the entire infrastructure less responsive to incidents.

At the heart of Wisper 360, the module Wisper Core provides a targeted response to these challenges. By providing an operating system that is sealed and unchanging, it prevents unauthorized modification, ensuring optimal integrity and stability of virtual environments. To improve network management and ensure optimal performance, Wisper Core integrates a SD-WAN solution without any additional cost, ideal for multi-site infrastructure, the teleworking and mobile workers. This technology intelligently optimizes WAN network traffic, ensuring a stable and smooth connection regardless of the location of users. With local virtualization, your work environment runs directly on the workstations, reducing latency and improving responsiveness. In addition, a proxy cache system stores your frequently used master images, minimizing network requests and optimizing LAN & WAN bandwidth for a more efficient and secure user experience.

Centralized and automated management of workstations

Managing a fleet of physical workstations often involves a multitude of manual interventions and time-consuming organization. Wisper Manager radically simplifies this management by offering centralized and automated administration. The solution allows management by groups and subgroups, thus facilitating the organization and distribution of resources. Features such as the group task planning (start/stop of machines, applications, VMs), the implementation of a activity dashboard and thecustomizable organization with filters and columns allow to have a precise overview of the computer park in real time. 

The integration of multiple Active Directory, naming automation and granular role definition offer unmatched flexibility compared to traditional physical workstations. In addition, compatibility with the SSO and the MFA, as well as the adjustment of hypervisors, the export of hardware, or the complete log management and the remote access integrated come to complete the offer.

Thanks to the local virtualization controlled via the Manager, the elimination of physical servers allows to realize substantial cost savings until 500 euros per item per year.

Plus, Wisper 360 reduces the need for on-site interventions through remote maintenance, avoiding costly travel and saving between €20 and €50 per intervention.

Optimization of updates and cache, a major asset

In many companies using physical workstations, updating systems and installing new software is a time-consuming and repetitive task. These processes often require manual interventions on each machine, which can lead to delays, configuration errors and extended periods of vulnerability. In addition, the lack of centralized management makes it difficult to distribute updates consistently, increasing the risk of security breaches and system malfunctions.

The module Wisper Repository Service (WRS) by Wisper 360 revolutionize the management of updates by facilitating centralization and automation the entire process. With a local cache dedicated to virtual machines, the system efficiently stores the necessary updates, allowing a fast and homogeneous distribution throughout the fleet. In addition, the update manager and PXE installation manager automate the installation and application of patches, eliminating the need for repetitive manual interventions. The ability to set up a proxy ensures optimal distribution of updates, thus improving system responsiveness and overall security. This centralized approach not only reduces downtime, but also optimizes the performance and reliability of the IT environment.

Wisper’s philosophy: Transparency and Simplicity

Companies often face complex and opaque offers when it comes to investing in workplace management solutions. In many cases, physical workstation solutions are accompanied by hidden costs and costly interventions of partners or experts, making it difficult to fully control investments.

The company Wisper differentiates itself by a commercial approach based on tranparency and the simplicity. The offer is designed to be clear and without surprises, allowing companies to understand their investments accurately without unforeseen additional costs. This transparency eliminates hidden costs often associated with traditional solutions and ensures more predictable and controlled budget management. By emphasizing the simplicity of its offer, Wisper facilitates decision-making and allows companies to focus on their digitalization, knowing that they have a reliable solution without financial complications.
