VMware Server Consolidation

As enterprises grow, IT organizations must rapidly add computing capacity-often in the form of new servers with a variety of operating environments. The resulting server sprawl is costly in terms of capital and people needed to operate, manage, and upgrade new servers.

Server consolidation and containment with VMware software provides a solution for these problems. Virtual infrastructure enables workload isolation and granular resource control for all of the system's computing and I/O resources. By consolidating physical systems in the data center onto servers with VMware virtual infrastructure, enterprises experience:

• Lower total cost of ownership of servers
• Higher server utilization
• Increased operational efficiency
• Improved manageability

• Blade Platforms
• IT Infrastructure Servers
