Cutting IT Costs Has Never Been Easier
The average enterprise uses 70% of its IT budget to maintain its physical infrastructure. As the industry’s leading virtualisation software, VMware vSphere™ can cut overall IT costs by up to 70% – allowing more resources to be allocated toward innovation and improving business operations.
In addition to having a low total cost of ownership, VMware vSphere also simplifies operations, delivers improved performance and ensures high availability of services. VMware is fundamentally changing how organisations manage, deploy and deliver IT.
Why VMware for virtualisation?
With VMware vSphere™, you can consolidate your servers and reduce the amount of related IT hardware you need. This drastically lowers your hardware, power, cooling and management costs. Virtualisation also simplifies the management of your IT operations. With automated processes, your administrators can spend less time performing repetitive tasks including provisioning, configuration, monitoring and maintenance.
Virtualisation allows you to:
• Maximise your current resources: Consolidating your servers allows you to combine infrastructure resources and break the traditional model of only having one application per server
• Increase availability of hardware and applications: Securely back up and migrate entire virtual environments without interruptions in service. This improves business continuity by eliminating planned downtime and immediately recovering from unplanned issues
• Improve operational flexibility and responsiveness: Dynamically scale to respond to unpredictable market changes and user demands. The ability to provision servers faster allows administrators to spend more time focusing on business needs
• Take the first step on the path to cloud computing: Virtualising your infrastructure is the beginning of the journey to the cloud. Cloud computing provides additional cost savings and results in a zero-touch infrastructure with full automation across the board.
