Use VMware Infrastructure And VMware View To Save Money, Time And Energy
“We sometimes walk people through our datacenter, show them all the empty racks, and say, ‘This is what virtualization has done for us.’ Before we started using VMware Infrastructure, those racks were full. It’s a powerful way of making the point that that you don’t need to buy a server every time you need one. Instead, you can license VMware for a robust infrastructure of virtual machines that give you as much or more computing power as physical servers.”

Teva's huge volume of servers, totaling about 1,700 servers in Israel and more than 1,500 servers globally, presents numerous challenges for the company in the fields of administration, maintenance, power consumption, air conditioning, floor space and backup. The transition to virtualization was inevitable, and Teva, as a company at the forefront of technology, was indeed one of the first companies in Israel to adopt the virtualization solution on such a large scale.
"We now have 1,700 servers in Israel, 70% of which are virtual, and throughout the world we have an additional 1,500 servers, 60% of which are virtual. It is now evident that due to this transition, we have succeeded in saving about 75% of the costs we would have incurred without virtualization - undoubtedly very significant savings".
