How Cisco IT Virtualizes Data Center Application Servers
Overview Like many IT departments, Cisco IT historically dedicated a single server to each application or instance. However, this general approach has created an explosion in the number of servers to be purchased, deployed, and managed. By using Cisco technologies and other-vendor products, Cisco IT has created virtualized servers that run multiple applications on a single physical server. The change to virtualized servers is producing ongoing benefits for Cisco, including a cumulative US$10 million in cost savings and cost avoidance, lower demand for data center space and resources, and reduced server deployment effort and cycle time. Cisco customers can draw on Cisco IT's real-world experience in this area to help support similar enterprise needs.
