Virtualization

By virtualizing your server, you should experience decreased server hardware purchases and maintenance costs, lower facility costs, fewer network ports, reduced provisioning and migration costs, and fewer applications failures. More specifically, depending on their consolidation ratio, organizations are saving up to 50% on hardware costs, as well as delaying new server purchases for 12 to 18 months. Server virtualizations also frees up data center space that was previously occupied by mainly idle servers- which drew a great deal of power while not in use. In addition, server virtualization can reduce the number of expensive Fibre Channel and Gigabit Ethernet ports required. For example, a modular, chassis-based enterprise-class 10GbE core switch costs a minimum of $5,000/port, and an Enterprise 4 Gb Fibre Channel switch with a high port count runs around $1,5000/port. Simply freeing up expensive switch ports can help build your business case. Most firms have also found that they spend less time building and provisioning new servers, saving both time and money. Furthermore, platforms like VMware ESX and Citrix XenServer have built-in workload management and high availability technologies that can prevent applications from running out of capacity and that will automatically restart failed applications. This reduces costly downtime and employee productivity losses.
