Addleshaw Goddard Outlaws Data Center Inefficiencies with VMware Software
"We first implemented VMware ESX Server to avoid the high costs of purchasing multiple servers and our use has grown organically ever since. VMware is now part of every major IT rollout and we actually treat ESX Server as if it were hardware. VMware software is a critical building block of our infrastructure that has introduced an unprecedented level of flexibility by making our applications portable."

VMware Infrastructure Enables The Fast Development Of A Dependable, Secure And Cost-Effective Infrastructure For BlackBerry Enterprise Server
“Our CEO wanted a robust BlackBerry Enterprise environment up and running within three months. We did it with VMware. It is in service around the clock and is never allowed to stop. Normally you’d call that ‘7 days and 24 hours availability,’ but with an application of this importance, we say ‘8 days and 25 hours.’ BES runs transparently on VMware virtual machines, with the same functionality and configuration as on physical servers. Actually, it’s even better than running BES on physical servers, because we have automatic high availability: if something goes wrong with one host, the VMs running on it automatically restart on other hosts in about a minute. We have very few support issues with our applications running on VMware–and I can’t remember any with BES. Plus, there have been no performance issues at all. In fact, a message generally gets to your BlackBerry before it arrives in Lotus Notes.”

Aspen Pharmacare
Aspen Solves IT Challenges with VMware Infrastructure 3
“Before we implemented VMware Infrastructure 3, we were spending unnecessary resources trying to manage our data center, which had become unsustainable from an operational standpoint. Virtualization allows us to experience direct business benefits through the ability to consolidate and centrally manage our servers, in addition to ensuring constant connection to applications and quick recovery of data in the event of an interruption to service. With VMware Infrastructure 3, we are able to achieve all of these capabilities with very simple administration and low overheads.”
