The Benefits of Server Consolidation

Because most servers are used at only 15% percent of capacity, you can consolidate multiple servers into a single virtual server. After consolidation, you can gain such benefits as rapid provisioning and reducing your system downtime to zero.




If your business needs to add servers quickly, virtual servers can be added within minutes, rather than hours with a physical server. This rapid provisioning allows your business, and your IT infrastructure, to be as agile as possible to react to changing conditions.




Does your business need zero system downtime? You can accomplish this with virtualization. Server capacity can be added or reduced depending on your needs. When the physical server needs to be maintained, your virtual system can be moved to another location without interruption. Once the server maintenance is complete, the virtual server is transferred to its original location.
