VMware Infrastructure 3 Combines with LeftHand Networks Open iSCSI SAN Powered by SAN/iQ® to Create a 100-Percent Virtual Platform That Scales Easily and Cost Efficiently
“Using a combination of VMware technology and LeftHand Networks iSCSI SANs, we’re able to clone a bootable copy of a client’s production environment and move it hundreds of miles away to a disaster recovery site. When they declare a disaster or want to test their recovery plan, we simply boot them into production. You just can’t do that without virtualization.”

Bobst Group SA
Adopt A VMware First Policy And Leverage VMware To Quickly Deploy Mission Critical Applications Such As SAP ERP, Siebel, Hyperion And Oracle 10 Worldwide While Maintaining Performance And Improving Availability
“One of our first virtualization projects consisted of converting our entire Siebel environment from physical to virtual. We were extremely surprised with the results; none of the users noticed the conversion. The old environment was running for years before, so the users were used to how things worked. In one weekend we did the complete migration to virtual servers–on Friday the workers logged out of Siebel and on Monday they returned to using it. They remarked absolutely nothing. No reactions, no complaints. There were no performance issues at any level. After this experience, we deployed ESX in multiple sites worldwide, converted everything to virtual, and just threw away the old physical machines. We now have a VMware first policy where all new servers are VMware virtual machines.”

It has helped us consolidate our Windows Servers and strengthen our disaster-avoidance and disaster-recovery plans. We run our production system and key Microsoft applications like Exchange and SQL on virtual machines. They run smoothly while using less CPU, less disk space, and a lot less memory than when they’re run on physical machines. Having seen other virtualization technologies, we know that no competitive product comes even close to the value that VMware delivers to our organization every day."
