"Always-On" Internet Enablement with BigleafBigleaf Networks' Dynamic QOS feature detects and responds to changes in available circuit throughput when sensitive traffic could be affected, and prioritizes both inbound and outbound VoIP traffic. Dynamic QoS detects the bandwidth bottleneck in the path to and from the customer’s site and adapts QoS policies to ensure traffic isn’t buffered in QoS-unaware ISP routers.
Because Bigleaf handles public IP addressing in the Bigleaf cloud, real-time applications aren’t interrupted during circuit outages and your VoIP calls stay intact. Before your traffic traverses the path between the Bigleaf datacenter and your building, Bigleaf encapsulates each packet in a tunnel which enables them to provide you with static IP addresses that don’t change when your traffic moves between circuits. So, if you're in the middle of a phone call using your VoIP service and your primary internet circuit goes down, Bigleaf will re-route the call traffic over your secondary internet pipe with no service interruption and without "dropping" your phone call. |
VMware to Proxmox MigrationsWith the recent withdrawal of VMware Essentials and Essentials Plus by Broadcom/VMware, Akzium has invested in training our technical resources on the Proxmox Virtual Environment (Proxmox VE) hypervisor solution.
Broadcom's announced End of General Support for vSphere 8 is October 11, 2027. Proxmox is the most cost-efficient option available to the VMware Essentials, Essentials Plus and Standard installed base customers who no longer have an option for Broadcom/VMware support of their platform. Akzium understands that upgrading to VMware VVF or VCF is prohibitively expensive for many small and medium businesses. Contact your Akzium rep to discuss the technical differences between your existing VMware hypervisor environment and a Proxmox-based virtualization platform. Akzium's highly-trained team of virtualization experts will design a migration path to move all of your existing VMware-hosted virtual machines over to Proxmox. |

Digital Twin Lite SolutionsIn manufacturing, wholesale distributing, and electrical power distribution a Digital Twin is a dynamic, virtual replica of a physical asset, process, or system that is continuously updated with real-time data and is usually bi-directional.
A Digital Twin Lite is a simplified, more focused version designed for quick, low-risk testing of specific decisions rather than mirroring an entire business operation and is uni-directional (data ingestion only). While there are cloud-based solutions such as AWS IoT Twinmaker and Microsoft Fabric Digital Twin Builder, the better (and more secure) option is to ingest data with Node-RED and use PostgreSQL with the TimescaleDB plugin for data storage, and then build dashboards using Grafana. This setup is "cloud agnostic", i.e. you can run it on-premises or opt to host it on Azure, AWS, Google Cloud, Contact your Akzium rep today for more information.

Akzium RMPrevent Endpoint HardeningMost ransomware defenses start after something gets executed.
Akzium’s RMPrevent helps reduce the chance of that happening in the first place. By hardening Windows desktop and server operating systems with proven registry edits, Group Policy controls, SRP/AppLocker restrictions, service lockdown, and removal of local admin rights, businesses can shrink the attack surface without buying another expensive software product. That matters because every unnecessary privilege, exposed service, and untrusted execution path is another opportunity for malware, ransomware, or human error to turn into downtime, recovery costs, and business disruption. Smart security isn’t always about adding more tools. Sometimes it’s about removing the openings attackers count on. If your business wants a more secure Windows environment that is practical, cost-effective, and built to reduce risk, Akzium can help. |

Microsoft DFS-R AlternativesWhile Microsoft's Distributed File System (DFS) brings a great deal of flexibility to the world of file sharing, both in-house and across a large network of branch locations, Microsoft's
Distributed File System Replication (DFS-R) has many known limitations and technology challenges. One of the missing features of DFS-R is the inability to apply distributed file locks across different locations and servers which would limit end-users from opening the same file in different locations on different DFS servers for read/write access. Akzium has partnered with the two best companies providing DFS-R alternatives - Peer Software and Resilio. Each of these DFS-R replacements has a feature set that enhances Microsoft's Distributed File System solution with the missing features and functions not found in DFS-R, while also giving you the option to implement a distributed file server environment without using DFS using each vendor's global file system and replication technologies. |
