How COLAMCO can help

Seven ways we extend your deployment team

Our targeted solutions help streamline your current business operations. We can offer the following services to enhance your organization.

Migrations of data and hardware

Data migration used to be a time-consuming and complicated procedure, and data loss was a frequent, very valid worry. The development of data transfer technologies has made the process faster, easier, and less dangerous.

Internal data migration is the process of moving data from one storage system to another. Upgrading a server, transferring to a new data center, and launching a new application are just a few of the projects that necessitate a data transfer.

Migration is sometimes confused with data replication or data integration, but each has its own approach: replication moves data between platforms on a regular basis, while integration brings disparate sources together within a database destination or analysis software.

Desktop virtualization

Virtual desktops allow users to work from virtually anywhere with a network connection, and to reach company resources regardless of the device or operating system the remote user has, as long as it runs Windows 10 Enterprise or Windows 10 Pro.

Virtualized desktop sessions are another link in the chain connecting digital workspaces. Desktop virtualization servers, typically running on virtual machines, execute real-time applications and other business processes on behalf of employees.

Because the user device is mostly a display, keyboard and mouse, the risk of losing or having one stolen is reduced: all user data and programs live on the server, not the client. That gives IT centralized security control over who reaches which data and applications, and makes it easy to remove access to a user’s persistent virtual desktop and all of its data the moment their permissions change.

Hardware deployments

By adopting a digital workplace you reduce your company’s risk of business disruption. COLAMCO can help you design, deploy and maintain a comprehensive portfolio of IT infrastructure projects. We serve more than 10,000 corporate, government and individual customers, offering over one million products from leading manufacturers including HP, Dell, Samsung, 3M, Lexmark, Sony, Targus, Xerox and Microsoft. Our certified experts can provision a wide range of devices:

  • Laptops
  • Desktops
  • Routers
  • Servers
  • Workstations
  • And more
Installs, moves, adds and changes

Every time you want to run a new program, upgrade an operating system, install a printer, connect to the internet, or complete any other task needing additional hardware or software configuration, the device has to be set up first. A gadget that isn’t properly installed may not operate correctly, or at all, which makes getting it right the first time worth doing.

Asset wiping and disposal

It is generally acknowledged that secure data wiping and hard drive destruction are critical to keeping sensitive data safe. Despite this, data breaches remain a regular news story worldwide. Data you believe has been erased can often still be recovered with the right combination of software and expertise. Our services suit businesses with the tightest data security requirements, and we provide certified data wiping and physical destruction. See data destruction.

Collaboration implementations

Cross-system initiatives can integrate services across several delivery systems, but implementation requires strong collaborative partnerships. Large, multidisciplinary teams of highly educated professionals complete big projects like acquisitions and IT system upgrades, teams often formed quickly to meet a pressing demand, working virtually and across long distances. Strengthening your company’s capacity for collaboration takes a long-term investment in rapport and trust, plus a culture where senior executives set the example.

Project management

As a result of technical progress, globalization and other factors, work is increasingly organized around projects, with teams brought together based on the talents a particular job requires. COLAMCO can help your company analyze and prioritize the resulting data, taking your user group’s specific needs into account. Those skills might help a nurse streamline shift changes to improve patient response times on their ward, help an IT professional develop modern applications in a hurry, or help a government department deliver its services more cost-effectively.

Reference

Types of data migration

Which one applies changes the plan, the downtime, and who needs to be in the room.

Storage migration

Organizations may move data from one physical storage site to another using virtual storage migration.

Application migration

When a firm upgrades software applications or changes vendors, it must move data to a new computing environment.

Business process migration

Businesses migrating their processes to a new infrastructure. This is frequently caused by a company reorganization, merger, or acquisition.

Data center migration

Transferring the existing infrastructure and its contents to a new location, or rearchitecting it.

Cloud migration

The most popular method. It moves on-premises data or applications to a cloud environment (public, private, or hybrid), though some organizations also run multi-cloud setups.

Database migration

Moving data from one system to another. Moving between versions of a database management system is simple database migration; when source and target have different schemas, it gets considerably harder.
