ANALYST REPORT:
Principled Technologies sought out to see how many Dell PowerEdge 2650s can be consolidated onto a single PowerEdge R805 with a Dell PowerVault MD1000 attached? We defined a consolidation methodology, which we detail later in this report; conducted multiple rounds of testing; and analyzed the results.
PRODUCT OVERVIEW:
Read this solution brief to learn how to drive down cost of ownership and speed up return on investment with SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 from Novell and the new generation on Intel Xeon processors.
WHITE PAPER:
Virtualization is more than a technology. It is a way of thinking about problems that allow us to go beyond the physical limitations normally associated with entire classes of hardware, from servers to storage. Attaining the maximum benefits of virtualization, however, requires a plan and constant monitoring to ensure peak performance.
WHITE PAPER:
Many large organizations have a centralized enterprise resource planning (ERP) environment based on proprietary mainframes or RISC-based systems. In contrast, Intel IT has successfully implemented a decentralized ERP environment that is based on industry-standard servers and supports more than 10,000 active users.
