Enterprise Customer Success Stories

Reduce Costs

Nationwide Insurance
After Extensive Market Analysis And Comparative Evaluations, In Mid-2004 Nationwide Chose VMware Infrastructure As The Foundation For Its Company-Wide Virtual Infrastructure Solution For Windows-Based Systems. VMware ESX Server, The Foundation Of VMware Infrastructure, Installs Directly On Physical Hardware (On "Bare Metal") And Allows Multiple Operating Systems To Run In Virtual Machines That Share Physical Resources. Virtual Machines Share CPUs, Memory, Disk Space And Network Interface Cards As A Single Resource Pool. IT Administrators Provision Virtual Machines And Monitor The Performance Of Physical And Virtual Machines With VMware VirtualCenter

"With a virtual environment those costs are drastically reduced, because the costs to run a virtual server — including personnel, heating, cooling and power — are much less." — Tom Gruzs, Systems Engineer

Improve The Dependability And Availability Of Vital Applications By Running Them On VMware Infrastructure

"I am extremely happy with the overall performance of BES, Exchange and SAP running on ESX. Some people question whether those applications can run in a virtualized environment. I’m here to say that they absolutely can, because we’re doing it right now. Those and other mission-critical applications run extremely smoothly on ESX and we have no performance issues at all. When you factor in the time and money you save on hardware and systems management–and the peace of mind you get from better backup and disaster recovery–it’s just smart to virtualize all your key applications."

Increase Agility

IBM
IBM implemented VMware Lab Manager, which builds on VMware Infrastructure 3 environments by automating the rapid setup and replacement of complex multimachine software configurations.

"Thanks to automation features alone in VMware Lab Manager, we’re saving two hours per person per build-verification test. Without VMware, this dramatically improved efficiency would not be possible."

VMware Infrastructure 3 Provides Robust And Scalable Platform For SAP Software Deployment

"Moving our SAP deployment on to VMware Infrastructure has made it easier to deliver a higher level of service to the business than was previously possible. We have moved our entire SAP environment onto VMware and our lives are now significantly easier. We spend far less time performing upgrades and maintenance tasks, and our service delivery processes are incredibly streamlined."

Alstom
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."

ABB Grain Ltd
By Adopting VMware Virtualization, ABB Grain Was Able To Meet Its DR Requirements While Rapidly Integrating New Acquirees Into Its Business. The Organization Saved A$60,000 In Server Maintenance Costs While Implementing A Dynamic Infrastructure.

"VMware has delivered a robust, scalable, dynamic infrastructure that allows us to quickly integrate newly-acquired businesses and implement a standard corporate environment without making huge investments in new hardware."
