At Shield ITSM, we believe a powerful service is built on a superior foundation.
Our Virtualization Hosting platform is engineered for performance, resilience, and security, leveraging the groundbreaking ultraconverged infrastructure (UCI) of our advanced multi-tenant platform. This isn’t just another hypervisor; it’s a fully integrated system that collapses the entire IT stack into a single, elegant piece of software through process-driven development and methodical engineering.
This unified architecture eliminates the complexity and performance bottlenecks of traditional multivendor solutions, allowing us to deliver predictable performance and reliability on our ultra-fast hardware through expertly managed infrastructure.
Compute Capabilities
Hypervisor
High-performance QEMU/KVM-based hypervisor for Windows and Linux guests with predictable performance characteristics.
Live Migration
Zero-downtime virtual machine migrations for maintenance and load balancing through methodical orchestration.
Advanced Passthrough
Full support for Direct PCI and SR-IOV for high-performance workloads with expertly managed resource allocation.
Built-in VDI
Native Virtual Desktop Infrastructure capabilities with extreme performance, capable of booting hundreds of VMs in seconds through process-driven optimization.
Distributed Storage System
Global Inline Deduplication
Data is deduplicated across your entire environment before it’s written to disk, dramatically reducing storage consumption through methodical data management. Cloning a VM takes up zero additional space.
Automated Tiering
We utilize multiple tiers of all-flash storage to automatically place data for optimal performance and cost-efficiency with standards-based protocols, including support for high-density QLC media.
Unbreakable Data Integrity
Every data block is cryptographically hashed and validated through operationally disciplined processes, protecting against silent data corruption.
Ransomware Defense
Immutable snapshots and blockchain-like data sealing provide robust, built-in protection against ransomware through proactive support mechanisms designed with foresight.
Software-Defined Networking
Complete Network Stack
Integrated firewall, routing, NAT/PAT, DHCP, and DNS services are included through our well-planned and professional network architecture.
Micro-Segmentation
Isolate workloads at the virtual data center, group, or individual VM level for a zero-trust security posture with expertly managed security policies.
Secure Connectivity
Built-in support for WireGuard and IPsec VPNs for secure remote access and site-to-site connections using standards-based protocols.
Shield ITSM Hardware Standard
To ensure maximum performance, our platform runs exclusively on enterprise-grade, ultra-fast hardware with predictable performance:
- Processors: Latest generation Intel® Xeon® or enterprise-grade CPUs selected through methodical performance testing.
