Virtual servers are the best known and most readily useful virtualization products. VMware has been and continues to be the leader in this category. Most people rightly see server consolidation as a way to reduce space, power and cooling demands in the data center. However, virtualization gives you more than server consolidation.

To learn more about how your organization can benefit from a VMware server consolidation and containment solution contact us for a complementary VM-Discovery session.
This is an informal evaluation about how virtualization could impact your environment. Conducted by one of our VM specialists – on site or over the phone -- we help you determine the scope of a VM effort in terms of sizing, timing, and budget. We provide this service at no cost to you.
Virtualization benefits include:
- Dramatically lower costs -- IT organizations reduce hardware and operating costs by as much as 50% by implementing a VMware server consolidation solution. In addition to significant reductions in server hardware expenses you’ll also realize savings in administration, power, cooling and data center infrastructure. These savings provide a rapid return on their VMware software investment.
- Boost utilization -- VMware Infrastructure aggregates x86 server resources into pools that reliably support CPU utilization exceeding 80% with continuous virtual machine load balancing provided by VMware DRS.
- Significantly improved manageability – VMware server consolidation and containment reduces data center complexity by reducing the number of servers that you need to manage. With VMware management tools, you simplify and centralize monitoring and management of large virtual infrastructure environments.
- Simplified Server Provisioning --IT departments reduce the time it takes to provision new servers by 50-70%. Virtual machines are as easy to copy as software files and are hardware independent, so deploying new workloads takes minutes instead of days.
- Increased IT efficiency -- VMware streamlines and eliminates common administrative tasks enabling IT to manage a growing server environment with existing resources.
- Greater responsiveness -- By streamlining common tasks and continuously balancing workloads, VMware software lets you respond more rapidly to requests for new servers and maintain service levels as resource demands fluctuate.
- Improved ability to handle future growth -- Because VMware eliminates the need to dedicate a physical server to each workload and makes it possible to fully utilize existing server resources, organizations can more effectively monitor growth in utilized capacity and strategically plan for additional growth to meet future business needs.
