* * Speaker Notes: Here is a very typical customer example involving 1000+ servers running a variety of workloads, direct attach storage, and a large mass of cables, racks, and power cords to support all of those servers. The customer initiated a project to implement VMware Infrastructure across their entire IT infrastructure. click The end result: a dramatic reduction in computing resources 1000 servers down to 80 Silo’d internal disks consolidated into a Highly Available tiered storage architecture 3000 cables/ports down to 300 200 racks down to 10 * Speaker Notes: The most obvious benefit of server consolidation is the reduction in capital invested in hardware. In this example, the 1000 1 to 4 CPU servers were consolidated onto 80 2 to 8 CPU systems over a 3 year period. Netting out the investment in software and infrastructure, the project saved a total of $5.8M, or $5,816 per workload, or $5.3 Million in total. Whether implemented during a server refresh or to contain future server growth, the reduction in server costs is striking. * * Speaker Notes: Meanwhile, the cabling to support 1,000 servers is a tangled mess. With 3 network ports per server, that’s 3,000 ports and cables to buy and to manage. Aside from the cost and risk of an individual cable failing, the opportunity for human error is extremely high. It’s difficult trying to identify what cables go from which switch to which server. Imagine trying to add a new server into this chaos and adding it correctly to the network? After virtualization, each server actually has more network cards (5 versus 3), but the reduction in server count is overwhelming. Total network cables drop from 3000 down to 400, saving $296 per workload over 3 years. Data center space is also freed by virtualization. Each server rack takes up valuable real estate in the data center. Moving from 200 racks down to 10 can save ~1750 sq ft(1). Given the high cost of leasing or building data center space, an organization
