Virtualized servers are yielding dramatic cost savings through consolidation of physical resources, reductions in power and cooling requirements, and slashed operational expenses. It’s delivering a magnitude of benefits that many businesses find virtually amazing. Read this whitepaper to learn more about the benefits of server virtualization. 

In this paper, various configurations of Exchange Server 2007 are tested in physical and virtual environments to evaluate the performance scalability and to understand the sizing requirements for Exchange Server 2007 in a virtualized environment. 

Server virtualization increases storage utilization, as moving from physical to virtual servers and often results in a larger number of combined physical and virtual servers in the environment. 

This document describes the Sun reference architecture for next-generation data backup using Symantec NetBackup software.

This Guide is a companion to How to Guide: Consolidating multiple SQL Server systems onto Dell PowerEdge Servers using Microsoft’s Hyper-V. In this Guide, we use the Dell PowerEdge R900 and PowerEdge R905 as target servers. 

This white paper presents an example configuration and best practices for deploying and configuring a highly available architecture using an example solution configuration and then discussing how the configuration helps in maximizing uptime. 

Employing UltraSPARC® T2 Plus processors - an evolution of the industry's first massively threaded systems on a Chip (SoC) - the Sun SPARC® Enterprise T5440 server offers breakthrough performance and energy efficiency to drive Web 2.0 infrastructure and address other demanding datacenter challenges. 

The goal of this study is to determine if a multi‐node Oracle RAC cluster can be replaced with a cluster consisting of fewer Dell PowerEdge 11G nodes (powered by Intel® Xeon® processor 5500 Series), and still process the OLTP workload faster with less power consumption and lower Oracle RAC licensing fees.

In this report, we estimate both the number of older solutions each Dell PowerEdge R710 solution can replace and the payback period for replacing those older solutions. One key finding discovered is that each Dell PowerEdge R710 solution can replace up to nine HP ProLiant DL385 solutions, and could yield a payback in under 9 months. 

Learn how Key Energy Services, Inc., the largest rig-based oil well services company in the industry, is using Robot/SCHEDULE - the automated, job scheduler and batch management software across multiple platforms. 

VMware Consolidated Backup (VCB) improves virtual server backup, but there are a number of limitations. FalconStor Software has a solution that works with VCB while overcoming these limitations. Using this solution, you can quickly and efficiently back up virtual machines and retain transactional consistency, without management complexity.
