Enterprise Server Consolidation: Compaq OpenVMS Real-World, Server Consolidation Case Study

Overview From this paper, organizations interested in Server Consolidation can learn many insights into the most critical decisions in this kind of project.

The IT staff and its Compaq advisors, who assisted in designing the new system and implementing the changeover, also learned the lesson that good communication is especially critical. Despite the technical benefits, colleagues at all levels - including those scattered across a wide geographical expanse - need to be informed at each step.
