Server Consolidation Wizard for Windows NT, Windows 2000 and NetWare Networks

Overview The rapid adoption of the distributed computing model over the last decade has resulted in an increased number of servers and server platforms supported in a typical enterprise. Most industry experts now agree that the proliferation of small capacity, workgroup-class file servers can eventually become very time consuming and expensive to support. The obvious alternative is to consolidate servers using more powerful hardware and standardize on Windows 2000, as it proves to be a reliable, high-performance enterprise platform. The purpose of this document is to offer a technical overview and a description of features and benefits of Aelita Server Consolidation Wizard.
