Storage Virtualization Cutting Costs Improves storage utilization Reduces storage spend Simplifying Admin Reduces frequency of defragmentation and other data “clean-up” exercises Decreases data backup time.
4
Server Virtualization Cutting Costs Improves storage utilization Decreases server “footprint” Lowers power utilization Reduces server spend Simplifying Admin Creates hardware independence Provides for faster provisioning Enables disaster recovery
5
Desktop Virtualization Cutting Costs Permits concurrent licensing Leverages old PCs as thin clients Simplifying Admin Provides for faster provisioning Reduces H/W & S/W compatibility problems Enables better desktop performance Yields fewer Help Desk calls

Virtual Toolbox Thin Client PC Open Source Software Virtual Appliance
7
Thin Client PC Cutting Costs Longer life Lower energy consumption Small footprint Simplifying Admin One-time-only configuration Central maintenance Limited patching Ready recovery from viruses and other malware
8
Open Source Software Cutting Costs Free software Free or low-cost support Simplifying Admin Interoperable with other open source and proprietary software No compulsory upgrades Can be tailored to customer taste
