VMware vSphere 4 Creates An IT Environment That Is Easier To Manage, Easier To Keep Available, And Easier To Recover—All While Lowering Overall Costs

“VMware vSphere has been a huge benefit to us. It saves time, it saves money, and it makes our critical applications more available and recoverable. It’s hard to think of an aspect of IT where vSphere isn’t playing an important supporting role for us.”

— Anonymous, Systems Administrator

Anadolu University

The University Manages 120 Virtual Machines Through 8 Servers And Reduces Electricity Costs By 40% Through The VMware Virtualization Solution

“We achieved an 80% improvement in infrastructure efficiency and prevented the risk of data loss without the need for new hardware through the implementation of the VMware virtualization solution.”

— Hakan Güray Şenel, Director of Computer Research & Application Center

Austech Institute For Further Education (AIFE)

VMware Datacenter And Desktop Virtualization Enables Deployment Of Multiple Virtual Machines On Fewer Physical Servers While VMware View Enables Management Of Desktops From A Single Location Within The Datacenter.

"Deploying VMware has enabled us to extend our virtualized desktop environment to a new Brisbane campus with only a minimal increase in management load, while our datacenter infrastructure can now comfortably support our projected growth in demand."

— Evan Yi, IT Manager

Bowdoin College

Using VMware Infrastructure 3, Bowdoin College Has Partnered with Loyola Marymount University on the West Coast to Build a Co-Located Data Center, Boasting Cross-Country Disaster Recovery

“If you are using VMware technology in production, you are two-thirds of the way to a robust disaster recovery plan before you even begin to design it. You get portable servers with flexible hardware requirements and ease of management. The new capabilities in VMware Infrastructure 3 of Distributed Resource Scheduler (DRS) and High Availability (HA), for instance, let you take advantage of resource pools and dynamically move virtual machines as needs change. Bowdoin has a VMware-first policy for any new system—not only because of the disaster recovery benefits of VMware virtualization, but also because of the other cost savings and efficiencies that VMware software enables.”

— Tim Antonowicz, Senior Systems Engineer

Brinsworth Comprehensive School

VMware Provides Leading Virtualization Solutions That Increase Scalability And Manageability Of Both Data Centers And Desktop Environments

“We have three IT staff here supporting 700 machines—I don’t think that would really be possible without tools like VMware Virtual Desktop Infrastructure.”

— David Orridge, IT Manager

Curtin University of Technology

VMware Virtual Infrastructure 3 Teaches Curtin University of Technology a Lesson in Data-Center Management

“The virtualized infrastructure enabled by VMware Infrastructure 3 completely changes our approach to the data center, where we now see it as a pool of resources that can be dynamically allocated according to the university’s needs. Near immediate server provisioning, support for a range of operating systems and a smart DR plan has changed the nature of our data center.”

— Kim Wisniewski , Systems Engineer

Deakin University

Adopting A Virtualized Server Infrastructure Has Enabled The University To Reduce Hardware Costs, Improve Resource Usage, Cut Provisioning Time And Simplify Server Management

"VMware’s management features are ahead of the curve – the tools and infrastructure around the software is very appealing. The ability to undertake live server migrations is also great."

— Eric Stacey, Unix Administrator

Dominican University of California

Using VMware Infrastructure 3 Products To Virtualize Its Application Servers, Dominican University Dramatically Cut Disaster Recovery Time, Reduced Hardware Replacement Cost and Improved CPU Utilization

“In the past, if a server failed, disaster recovery time would have taken anywhere from one to three days. With VMware technology, recovery time is reduced to just hours.”

— Jackson Ratcliffe , Executive Director of Information Technology

Eanes Independent School District

VMware View Provides A Platform For Desktop Virtualization That Helps School Districts Reduce Costs Of Desktop Environment

“VMware View extends the life of the technology we already have, so that our students aren’t negatively impacted by the ups and downs of the economy and educational budget cycles.”

— Carl Hooker, Virtualization Coordinator

Faith Baptist Bible College

VMware Server Provides a Cost-Free Way for Organizations to Virtualize and Consolidate Their Servers

“The main benefit of VMware Server is that it allows me to be more in control of the technology that I’m responsible for—and that’s a very good thing.”

— George Dougherty , CTO

George Washington University

VMware Infrastructure 3 Creates A Virtual Infrastructure That Allows Multiple Servers To Be Easily Hosted And Administered.

"Our system administrators appreciate VMware Infrastructure 3 for a variety of reasons: the speed of deployment, flexibility, time savings…the list goes on.”

— Brian Mislavsky, Information Systems Engineer

Georgian College

Use VMware Software to Add Virtual Instead of Physical Machines, Processing the Workload of 25 Physical Servers with Less Than Half that Number

“The initial driver for virtualization was cost avoidance: we were able to do the work of 25 servers with just 12. Besides maximized hardware utilization, minimized disruptions, and the ability to consolidate and share resources, probably the biggest benefit I see from virtualization is saving a considerable amount of time, thanks to simplified management.”

— Arlene McDonald, Manager, IT Operations

Hackensack University Medical

VMware Infrastructure 3 Creates a Flexible and Scalable Virtual Infrastructure That Frees Up Data Center Resources and Supports Growth

“Virtualization is no longer a ‘maybe’ for enterprise IT environments— it’s a necessity. We need to reduce costs and make more efficient use of resources, and VMware Infrastructure 3 helps us achieve that goal.”

— Benjamin Bordonaro, CTO

Hull College

VMware Infrastructure 3 Delivers 12:1 Server Consolidation and High Availability of Key Applications

“VMware has provided us with a really flexible and robust infrastructure. We can now deploy new applications in minutes rather than days and routine management is so much simpler. Virtualization has freed up so much of our time that we have been able to start working on new initiatives that we would never previously have been able to consider.”

— Jody Popplewell , Senior Network Administrator

Hull College

Hull College Reduces CO2 Emissions By Over 1,500 Tonnes Per Year With VMware Technology

"The expansion of our data centre was affecting our ability to deliver services promptly and efficiently and we were also becoming concerned about our power and cooling overheads. Virtualization has helped us drastically reduce our power and cooling requirements while making our overall infrastructure far more efficient.”

— Jody Popplewell , Senior Network Administrator

Indiana University

VMware Professional Services, In Partnership With House Of Brick, Helped Indiana University Migrate One Of Its Largest Transaction Processing Database To VMware vSphere 4, And Demonstrated That The vSphere Platform Performed As Well As The IBM AIX Platform
