WHITE PAPER:
This white paper describes the virtualization of a given user workload, and provides a useful sizing guide for enterprise deployments of VMware View™ 4, the VMware software platform for building a virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) environment.
PRESENTATION TRANSCRIPT:
Today, IT resources can be provisioned quickly and cheaply—some would say too quickly and cheaply. But those IT resources rely on brick and mortar as well as megawatts, which are abstracted from the IT department. This Webcast will identify pitfalls data center teams should avoid.
PRESENTATION TRANSCRIPT:
Access this exclusive resource to discover how server consolidation can lower data center energy bills by consolidating multiple servers on to fewer physical platforms.
CASE STUDY:
Southwestern/Great American chose to swap its dual environment (SAP ERP ran off of a legacy IBM AS/400) for a leaner infrastructure based on VMware ESX and IBM blade servers with Intel Xeon processors that could run both SAP ERP and its Windows applications. Read this case study to learn about the combined VMware and Intel solution.
WHITE PAPER:
This Intel paper analyzes the effects of various factors on the utilization of the primary server resources: compute, memory and I/O. The analysis shows that 4-socket servers, which provide greater headroom than 2-socket servers, may be preferable in a number of situations.
CASE STUDY:
Midway Independent School District sought to gain control over server sprawl and implement a consolidated solution for growth. Read this case study to learn how Dell servers, storage and Intel technology provided a firm foundation for education applications, growth and 50% power and cooling savings.
WHITE PAPER:
This paper outlines the trends in the industry relating to blade server deployments, the challenges relating to systems management and power and cooling in that computing environment, and HP's approach to addressing those challenges.
PRODUCT OVERVIEW:
The Dell PowerEdge M-series blade solution is a breakthrough in enterprise server architecture. Built from the ground up using Dell's Energy Smart and FlexIO technologies, the M-series is designed to combat data center sprawl and IT complexity.
EGUIDE:
What decisions go into building a modern data center? This e-guide discusses the data center design decisions. Inside, you will find discussions on three interface options for remote server monitoring and management, and the differences between blade and rack servers.
WHITE PAPER:
Oracle’s Sun Blade 6000 Modular System was designed from the ground up to deliver far greater efficiency than a corresponding set of rack-mount servers. That’s part of the equation that is making IT organizations everywhere consider blade systems as part of their strategy in battling the space, power, and cooling crunch.
