ABSTRACT:
Server virtualization is one of the hottest trends in IT today. VMware is credited with pioneering the server virtualization market and has successfully targeted large enterprises in the Fortune 1000. While small and medium enterprises (SMEs) have smaller data centers, their challenges remain the same. These include:
- Reducing capital costs through fewer server acquisitions
- Being able to do seamless and online server upgrades
- Reducing power and cooling consumption, and:
- Regaining data center floor space
These challenges are compounded in an SME which typically operates on limited budget, people, real estate and time. Today's podcast will focus on server virtualization and the many benefits it provides to the small and medium enterprise. Attendees will learn how server virtualization can help SMEs:
- Achieve capital and operational cost savings
- Deploy a cost effective high availability and DR solution
- What to look for in a server virtualization solution
- Examples of how SMEs have deployed server virtualization
- How SME customers have benefitted from server virtualization
- Why Virtual Iron delivers a unique solution that is cost effective, field proven, focused on SMB, and easy.
