Downsized 125 servers to 25 physical servers!
Our client sought savings in real-estate, hydro, capital costs, downtime, and provisioning time. To do so, this client migrated its server farm to a VMWare-only (virtual) environment,
and set a conservative goal of 5:1 consolidation (5 servers running on one physical server) which was easily achieved.
These servers include large Exchange servers, a critical e-business site running on SQL Server
and IIS, document management, and more.
For the IT Director and his internal clients, the real value of this system is the ability to turn on a new server in about 2 hours, versus days in the previous environment.
That increases their business flexibility and enhances their competitive position!
Our team has the experience and knowledge to help your organization dramatically downsize its IT environment. Call us at 416.363.9320, or

Virtualization with VMWare:
Software exists that lets your run multiple operating systems at the same time on a single physical computer.
Each of these operating systems act as a virtual computer in that physical box. Virtualized servers are server
operating systems that run one a single server hardware.
Virtualization has several applications. We use it to help our clients make better use of their hardware investments,
minimize hardware maintenance, lower real-estate and electric costs, drastically improve disaster-recovery and restore times,
and create affordable fault-tolerance.
