Application Acceleration
APPLICATION
OPTIMISATION
Application Traffic Management
Subscriber Management
Application Deployment
With the drive towards remote working and consolidated
infrastructures, networks are intrinsically important to the
performance of applications. It is vital to consider the effects of all
applications across the network in order to maximise productivity,
and gain a competitive advantage.
What we do
Network congestion has traditionally been tackled by increasing
bandwidth or by deploying sophisticated Quality-of-Service (QoS)
mechanisms. These options can be expensive and are often ineffective
as latency is often the issue, rather than congestion itself.
Imtech works closely with its customers to understand their application
landscape and identify the business requirements for these over the
network. This can be achieved by the non-intrusive deployment of
technology to discover network utilisation down to the application
level. This information can help define company policy on application
performance across the network.
In addition to Traffic Management solutions, Imtech has considerable
experience in deploying Application Acceleration solutions to both
increase network utilisation of “chatty” protocols whilst at the same
time, reducing the network utilisation of data intensive activities such
as database backups.
How it helps
Imtech’s Application Optimisation solutions create ‘smarter networks’
by prioritising business-critical traffic ahead of non-critical traffic so
that important traffic is not starved of resources by bandwidth hungry
(but non-essential) applications. Imtech’s solutions only determine the
applications that are being used and do not analyse the actual data
being transported over the WAN itself. Real-time compression and
caching of traffic reduces the actual amount of data that needs to
travel over the WAN, resulting in a less strain on existing bandwidth. By
identifying bottlenecks, controlling recreational traffic and intelligently
accelerating business critical applications, IT departments can costeffectively re-balance end-user supply and demand.
Business Benefits
Prioritise business-critical traffic ahead of non-critical traffic
Reduce the impact of latency on slow
applications
Eliminate repetition over the WAN resulting
in less strain on existing bandwidth
Maximise the WAN by scaling the flow and
‘filling the pipe’
Overcome the impact of chatty protocols
and deliver applications faster
High Availability
BUSINESS
CONTINUITY
Disaster Recovery
Continuous Data Protection
Whether an organisation does business locally or globally, or is a
multi-division enterprise or successful small or mid-sized business,
information availability is critical to their success.
If a critical application or system becomes unavailable, the entire
business can be in jeopardy. Revenue and customers can be lost,
penalties can be owed, and bad publicity can have a lasting effect
on customers and on stock price.
What we do
Imtech’s experienced consultants hold the answer; by designing and
implementing a range of proven Business Continuity solutions – from
synchronous and asynchronous protection to site-to-site / local campus
and hardware & software replication technologies – all with suitably
scheduled testing to ensure a working process.
We can protect against Business Driven Risks (compliance/governance),
Data Driven Risks (disk/hardware failures/data corruption) and Event
Driven Risks (planned/unplanned downtime). By balancing service
levels, cost and risk, Imtech creates compelling and robust solutions
that deliver greater affordability, manageability and flexibility. These
solutions have successfully been deployed industry-wide, in over 100
SMB and large-scale enterprises to date.
How it helps
Imtech’s innovative solutions for Windows®, Linux®, AIX® and IBM®
i keep systems and applications highly resilient and available, 24 x 7
x 365, so that businesses can obtain the fastest, reliable and secure
route to recovery should a failure or disaster occur. Data replication
involves shipping data between sites, so it is good to know that
Imtech’s consultants are experts in WAN design and provisioning,
traffic optimisation and security. Imtech can advise on how to obtain
remote access to corporate systems and data in the securest way
possible in the event of any emergency or major site failure and offers
additional cost savings. With Imtech’s advanced CDP (Continuous Data
Protection) feature, we can help get businesses as close as possible to
‘zero’ downtime.
Imtech can significantly increase the availability of business systems and
applications to successfully protect and secure the company’s greatest
asset – its data.
Business Benefits
Improve overall business efficiency and
simplify IT operations
Achieve more “up time” of systems & data

Server/System
Storage
VIRTUALISATION
Networks
IT Infrastructure has become increasingly complex and costly
over the last decade. To become even more efficient, new ways
are needed to simplify IT environments and accrue an ROI from
existing IT investments.
Virtualisation and Consolidation has become fundamental to
most data centre infrastructure strategies. Virtualisation offers
compelling value which allows for a flexible and optimised data
centre.
What we do
Imtech’s Virtualisation and Consolidation solutions ensure that the
data centre is streamlined to allow businesses to respond to market
dynamics faster and more efficiently than ever before.
Our multivendor solutions for server, storage and networks take a
holistic view of the virtualised environment. Imtech can help simplify
existing data centre architectures and ensure fewer devices and
interconnections need to be managed. In doing so, we can significantly
lower the business’ capital equipment and operational spending costs.
Our advanced security practice can also help customers to rationalise
the protection of any virtualised environment.
How it helps
Imtech’s Virtualisation solutions provide compelling business value.
Ensuring the company’s infrastructure is more effectively utilised is key
to all our propositions. By optimising the network and infrastructure
we can ensure the continuous protection, availability, management
and assurance of business data. Imtech can help any virtualised
business stay fully operational and dynamic.
As Cloud computing begins to play a key role within data centre
planning, it is essential that companies make the right architectural
choices now. Partnering with Imtech ensures businesses can maximise
the IT architecture now and scale for future growth.
Business Benefits
Keep the business fully operational and maximise existing IT
investments
Contribute to environmental policies
Simplify the decision making process
Save costs on hardware acquisition and
operational IT costs

Network Security
SECURITY &
COMPLIANCE
Security for Virtualised Environments
Remote Access & Mobile Security
Web Application Security
All businesses need to protect systems and data against evolving
security threats and minimise the chances of an attack. Effective
security management requires a detailed understanding of the threat
landscape. Next Generation Networks extend security boundaries
beyond the traditional corporate firewall, to web presences, mobile
devices and virtualised environments, all of which are vulnerable.
What we do
The common approach towards security is to merely think of Firewalls,
VPN, remote access and patch/version management technologies but this is only half of the story. Imtech takes a vendor agnostic and
comprehensive approach to its security philosophy. We ‘design in’
security, protecting existing IT environments with minimum disruption,
inconvenience and expense.
By taking a ‘step back’, Imtech can assess all aspects of the corporate
infrastructure and devise robust solutions that cover Web applications
and mobile devices through to virtualised environments. Imtech’s
consultants understand a plethora of vendor platforms, legacy
environments, operating systems and networking technologies, having
acquired a unique set of integration skills which demonstrates a greater
understanding of IT estates and what is needed to cost-effectively and
reliably secure them.
How it helps
Imtech’s Security solutions add real business value without additional
management overhead or performance bottlenecks. Imtech’s
consultants are all CISSP qualified. Having a wide product understanding
ensures we can secure varied and complex environments including
local campus through to virtualised infrastructures. Our security design
principles include regular testing and strong results based methodologies
which are founded on the most suitable mix of products and
Professional Services to meet individual customer requirements.
Prospective clients can assess the possible benefits from Imtech’s
Security solutions first hand via proof-of-concept testing within our very
own solutions centre, or via on-premise demonstrations. This helps
stakeholders to determine the potential ROI gains before any financial
commitment needs to be made.
Business Benefits
Cost effectively secure the IT infrastructure, endto-end
Meet legal and compliance requirements
(ISO27001, PCI -DSS)
Secure intellectual property assets that may
currently fall outside of security domains (Mobile
Devices)
Wide Area Networking
Local Area Networking
CONNECTIVITY
Data Centre Networking
Network Connectivity is at the heart of all modern businesses and
it’s ability to deliver guaranteed performance is critical to their
success. Ensuring end to end performance requires knowledge of
both the local and wide area networks that join geographically
disparate resources together. New data centre architectures that
combine storage and local area networking will provide cost
effective routes to dynamic virtualised and cloud environments.
What we do
Imtech delivers end-to-end, global connectivity solutions - including
Branch Office, LAN Switching and WAN Routing technologies. Imtech
can seamlessly knit together a range of market-leading products to
deliver highly tailored solutions that scale for future growth as well as
handling the specified business requirements of today.
With proven management of third party communications providers
supplying the physical lines, (including BT, Cable & Wireless and Virgin
Media), Imtech’s dynamic end-to-end Connectivity solutions contain
the most advanced service offerings available in the market.
How it helps
Imtech can determine where any Connectivity bottlenecks may be
occurring and help define which areas the business may wish to
invest in order to get the most out of any new solution purchase. Our
Professional Services consultants are highly qualified and can expertly
plan and deliver complex solutions locally or abroad. Coupled with our
proven data centre experience, Imtech can readily deploy carrier-class
solutions to clients and pre-empt any issues which may arise during
any new data centre deployment.
Moreover, Imtech’s diversity of skills negates the need to ‘contract
in’ additional third party suppliers so organisations can be certain of
getting the best value for money from one, highly accredited technical
solutions partner.
Business Benefits
Reduce annual communication bills
Maximise existing data centre space and more effectively utilise existing
hardware
More efficient use of bandwidth and overall

rapid innovation and decision making, as well as benefiting from
significant infrastructure cost savings.
What we do
Cloud computing is a service consumption and delivery model that
can help improve business performance, control costs and ultimately,
transform any business. Imtech is currently helping its customers in
their journey towards the Cloud, so that businesses can take advantage
of a wide range of exciting new opportunities, including greater access
to new customers and markets.

MANAGED SERVICES
NETWORK
TRAFFIC
MANAGEMENT
Imtech ICT’s Traffic Management service
provides valuable network analysis and
business intelligence. For enterprises, this
information is used to efficiently optimise
the network and in doing so, significantly
improves overall productivity. We can
ensure the performance of mission-critical
applications, (such as VoIP and SAP) and
help contain ongoing network costs - and all
in a way that is transparent to end users.
What we do
Imtech ICT’s scalable solutions link enterprise business policies to
specific network actions to optimise corporate network WANs
and prioritise mission-critical applications in order to deliver major
performance improvements. We help our customers define a Traffic
Management policy that is most appropriate to their business. Our
Managed Services team will then convert these policies into workable
processes to better manage bandwidth and maximise network
performance in the long-term.
The results are very powerful; with actionable data about end user’s
behaviour and traffic patterns, control can subsequently be introduced
into the network. This can ensure that business critical applications
are not starved of bandwidth and employees can gain access to the
infromation they most need quickly and reliably.
How it helps
With pressure on margin and profitability, many companies need
to ensure that valuable bandwidth is carrying, as a priority, business
related applications to ensure overall productivity for the organisation.
Believe it or not, unwanted traffic is on your network. Utilising best
of breed technology, Imtech ICT can confidently give your business
a key insight into how the corporate WAN is being used with our
non-intrusive and innovative Bandwidth Reporting & Monitoring tools.

CONTINUITY
Business Continuity requires planning,
investment and suitably scheduled
testing to ensure a working process. How
much depends on the specific needs of
your business. The important question
to ask is how long could your business
cope without its core business systems,
applications and data being available?
What we do
Imtech ICT combines its extensive skills and knowledge to deliver a
best of breed Business Continuity service (Disaster Recovery (DR), High
Availability (HA) & Continuous Data Protection (CDP)) to ensure that
our clients’ data, systems and applications are always available and
protected from planned and unplanned downtime.
