IT organizations with high VM deployment rates often experience performance and capacity utilization problems. Without visibility into capacity usage, VMware admins can not manage vm deployments to optimized CPU, memory and storage utilization. 

The Intel Xeon processor 5500 series with Intel® Intelligent Power Technology, delivers up to 50 percent lower idle power. By replacing aging single-core processor-based servers with new, more energy-efficient servers, you can gain capacity to grow and to increase IT performance using fewer servers. 

In its VMware server environment, Hershey Entertainment and Resorts (HE&R) needed to get more proactive visibility into its resource utilization and allocations to plan for future growth. 

Managing desktop environments across the enterprise can be challenging for many organizations. Virtualization of desktop systems is an increasingly popular solution, but requires scalability and balanced design for successful implementation. This white paper discusses the use of Sun Fire X4450 servers as a virtual desktop infrastructure platform. 

To evaluate the performance of its solutions, FalconStor commissioned Demartek to validate the performance of the FalconStor VTL solution and its deduplication solutions - as they come from the factory, without any special tuning adjustments. The sustained performance of these solutions is impressive and was measured using conservative data. 

Watch this webcast to learn about a new unique workload profiling tool that takes the guess work out of identifying underutilized physical servers and virtual hosts. Learn how to leverage this tool for improved use and longer life of your current hardware. 

Watch this webcast to learn the importance of effective virtual server management in your data center. Learn how virtualization health checks and consolidation planning can enable your organization to proactively predict when to improve capacity and resource utilization while minimizing contention. 

When the U.S. Air force needed a more powerful storage infrastructure, they turned to HP for a system that allowed them to meet business demands more flexibly, manage data more simply and efficiently and mitigate the risk of lost data with a storage area network (SAN) that pools, shares and centrally manages storage resources. 

This whitepaper explains how building a smarter storage infrastructure based on the business value of data can enable you to address your data storage requirements efficiently and at the lowest cost. 

This white paper highlights two new additions to the Cisco Small Business Network Storage System (NSS) line of products. The Cisco NSS2000 Series is a 2-bay network attached storage (NAS) system, and the Cisco NSS3000 Series is a 4-bay system. 

Using the VKernel Capacity Bottleneck Analyzer, Hasbro is able to continuously monitor shared CPU, memory, and storage usage to properly allocate the required resources among all of its deployed virtual machines. 

This paper examines how investing in new Sun servers can actually cut your data center costs. Find out how Sun’s latest technology will cut the number of servers you need. 

Deduplication has become an essential tool to control exponential data growth. This article will describe the techniques being used today to deduplicate data and will highlight considerations for choosing the best technology for your environment.
