"Talmer" opened a test laboratory

2021: Open a lab to develop your own IT solutions

Talmer announced on August 18, 2021 that it had opened a laboratory to develop its own IT solutions and test vendor products. The multivendor infrastructure of the laboratory will allow you to test many IT for subsequent implementation to customers.

The laboratory's hardware infrastructure is based on server the network equipment of leading manufacturers. Virtualization infrastructure allows TALMER technical teams to create dedicated laboratory stands for various tasks: product testing, demonstration of complex IT solutions, incident emulation, case modeling as part of technical support, product and service development, validation and programmaticallyhardware training of technical specialists. cloudy The laboratory architecture also allows you to emulate distributed installations, providing flexibility and ease of management of tested solutions.

The laboratory constantly tests VDI solutions and related ecosystems: traffic balancers, communication channel encryption systems, hyperconvergent solutions for hosting the VDI infrastructure. As of August 2021, alpha/beta versions of various software are being tested in the laboratory, customer infrastructure is being modeled with VIM solutions at the laboratory's facilities, and an SD-WAN demonstration and laboratory stand for corporate customers and telecom operators is being created. Operating solutions in a test environment ensures compatibility with the software and hardware complexes already used by customers, introduces IT products into a productive environment with minimal time without affecting existing systems, reducing risks and project costs.

The security perimeter of the laboratory meets the requirements for reliable and secure modeling of the customer's infrastructure with the ability to pilot projects with real data.

The launch of the test laboratory is an important part of TALMER's technical development strategy. Having our own laboratory will allow us to provide customers with technological solutions in a mature form, after thorough verification and detailed study. The laboratory is a tool for maintaining the competencies of technical specialists at a high level, which contributes to a decrease in time-to-market and the cost of implementation, "said Mikhail Efimenko, technical director of TALMER.
