Successful Server Consolidation: It's All in the Preparation


Today's IT environment is unique. Budgets remain flat, business units now hold IT departments accountable for services provided, and businesses demand less downtime and increased productivity. In short, the expectation is to do more with less. This has driven the need for IT consolidation as a way to streamline the IT infrastructure and to help IT departments achieve this goal expectation.

IT departments are unable to implement a server consolidation effort without showing economic justification first. While a server consolidation effort provides IT departments many operational and strategic advantages, often the most important aspect of a successful consolidation is the financial value. This paper highlights the technological advantages of server consolidation and the potential positive financial impact on the IT environment.
