Server Consolidation
Do these scenarios sound familiar?
  • Are you battling with the cost inefficiencies of "server sprawl"?
  • Do you need to lower the overall cost of operating your data center?
  • Is managing the storage and servers at your remote offices becoming more complex and expensive?

IDC predicts the number of servers in the U.S. will rise 50 percent over the next four years. Nine million servers currently operate in data centers across the U.S., impacting electricity costs, which is already in the range of $3.3 billion according to Information Week. As infrastructures have grown, expansion strategies have consisted of adding more servers. This situation is known as "server sprawl" and poses a costly set of problems for growing companies.

Why Virtualization?
Virtualization offers cost-effective means to address complex hardware and software management issues (underutilized equipment, high power and cooling costs, floor space limitations and proliferating administration requirements.) Strategies to reduce an organization’s total hardware requirements, both in the data center and in remote locations, enable companies to:

  • Maximize hardware and software resources
  • Simplify management and maintenance tasks and
  • Decrease total cost of ownership (TCO)
