However, the ease of VM creation and the marginal capital impact of adding new virtual machines knock that model on its ear. When servers can be spun up in minutes, management headaches are guaranteed to increase in a nonlinear curve, spiking as the number of virtualized servers rises and new VM-specific feature sets are introduced.

These include thin provisioning, data deduplication, improved compression methodologies, disk-to-disk-to-tape backup, encryption, virtual tape libraries, larger disk drives, and faster performing drives. In this report, we'll touch on many of these and help sort out whether deduplication in particular makes sense in your environment.

Discover how cold aisle containment, as an addition to a conventional precision cooling system, consistently separates cold and warm areas without requiring structural changes to the data center. A cold aisle retrofit can be implemented easily and quickly, carries a payback time from weeks to a few months - depending on whether energy utility rebates were available to help with funding - and can reduce overall energy costs.
