ABSTRACT:
You can't achieve the improved scalability and availability by implementing virtualization if you don't choose the appropriate server platform for your project. Indeed, selecting the appropriate platform requires considering a variety of factors so that the workload can meet designated service levels for the enterprise.

Watch this webcast to hear Burton Group analyst Richard Jones provide insight on overcoming server selection issues. You'll learn how to choose a platform that can meet these requirements for a successful virtualization implementation:

  • CPU: leverage all CPU cores to get compute value from the investment and power consumed
  • Memory: provide adequate memory scalability for virtual machines
  • LAN I/O: aggregate LAN throughput from all virtual machines
  • Storage I/O: aggregate disk throughput from all virtual machines
