TIS Labs Pvt. is an IT Infrastructure Services Organization working in niche areas. We operate out of Kolkata and Pune and are the exclusive Linux / Open Source / Unix based IT Infrastructure solution provider in East and NE India and now at Pune as well. We are Red Hat Business Partner and also the first Enterprise Level business partner of VMWARE amongst the local IT organization at Eastern Indi
a. We are purely a Service-Only organization using mostly OpenSource / Linux solutions. In these days of economic slowdown, the IT managers and the CXOs are struggling to manage their IT infrastructures with limited available resources – be it human resource or hardware and software. TIS Labs is skilled to address these issues and is helping organizations build and manage their IT infrastructures with right cost-effective technology and right operational procedures [and without using proprietary expensive virus-prone unstable software]. Opensource and Virtualization are the avenues to take a quantum leap in IT operational flexibility, speed of deployment and application performance and availability. Virtualization allows IT managers to deliver more to their business needs while having firm control on costs. And if we deploy Virtualized environments on Opensource then that’s a perfect cost effective solution for the business. We offer capabilities to design, build, migrate, integrate, manage, and evolve state-of-the-art open source solutions (Linux Based). We help our customers incorporate open source technologies, and we have specialized services that feature open source solutions. Some of these solutions are:
LDAP based directory services using OpenLDAP and smb-LDAP
E-Mail Services using both FOSS (postfix-sqmail), Axigen and Zimbra-like Enterprise tools
High-Availability Clusters using Cluster Suites or Heartbeat based low-cost but stable solutions
High Performance and CUDA Computing [HPC] using both free ROCKS / OpenMP / LAM-MPI and Enterprise class tools from Intel, Moab Cluster Management, OpenACC tools etc. Unified Communications [VoIP / FaxoIP / Video-oIP] using Asterisk-Elastix
Backup and Restore using Zmanda, Tivoli or Symantec on Linux
Gateway Security using Untangle, ClearOS etc., NMS using Nagios etc. DLP using myDLP, Databases like mySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle etc. Java based Middleware like JBOSS, Zope, Tomcat etc. on clustered environments. Content Management using Alfresco or Confluence and many more IT Infrastructure solutions. Amazon [AWS] instance Management, Verisign PKI CA integration with e-Mail etc. On the virtualization front, we have capabilities for Server consolidation, Hardware abstraction and Application isolation using cost-effective KVM based hypervisor. We help our clients to:
• Run multiple operating systems on a single server thus reducing cost
• Run a leaner (and greener) datacenter and thus save electricity cost
• Utilize the hardware resources to the maximum instead of having One Server for One Application
• Keep the application availability up thereby securing the business. Using Xen / KVM based Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization [RHEV], we modernize clients’ IT infrastructure for a more capable platform or increase the infrastructure operational efficiency. This is a high-performance, end-to-end solution that's available for both server and desktop virtualization with the following advantages
• The widest ecosystem for hardware and enterprise independent software vendors
• Record-breaking performance and scalability.
• Comprehensive security.
• The lowest total cost of ownership (TCO) in its class. Plus we help clients benefit from Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Management features, which include live migration, high availability, load balancing, power saving, and more. Being Enterprise class Business Partner of both Red Hat and VMWARE, we have the skills to build Internal Clouds for our clients with a business need-based mix and match of both these solutions. The route that we take in delivering these cost effective solutions is
Consulting => Proof of Concept => Test Environment Deployment => Production Environment Deployment
On the operations front, we also undertake 24 x 7 remote infrastructure management services. We can either take control of your Linux servers and do an end-to-end support remotely. This will have tremendous impact on your operational cost as well. And TIS Labs being a firm believer in ITIL and other quality processes, we also undertake consulting assignments in Technology, Business Processes and Quality Processes. We have highly experienced consultants for IT / business / ISO certification needs. Some of the areas are as follows:
ITIL Consulting leading to ISO 20000 certification
Information Security Consulting leading to BS7799 / ISO27001 certification
BCP-DR Consulting
IT Effectiveness and Gap Analysis etc. Conceived in 2009 and born in January 2010, we are almost a three year old entity. During the past 33 months, we have gone through an interesting journey and have succeeded to engage with 40+ clients spread across SMB, Govt and Corporate-Enterprise. We have been engaged in assignments ranging from simple Linux based desktop solutions to configuring complex HA based e-gov projects to configuring large HPC and HA environments for premier science and education research institutes and companies in India & USA. Our inhouse Lab which is a Linux and Virtualization Centre of Excellence has been used by our large clients in doing PoCs and Benchmarks for critical Linux based solutions. TIS Labs would continue to be a Linux / OpenSource promoter in the geography that we operate on and with the help of all our well-wishers and customers, we hope to continue the good work and thereby meet the customers’ needs with niche solutions.
