Increase Efficiencies and Reduce Costs

Today nearly every university, department and college operates at least one datacenter. VMware customers average consolidation ratios of 12:1 with many attaining higher rates, dramatically reducing power costs and physical space requirements. And server consolidation is just the beginning. Education institutions want to invest in solutions that improve IT efficiencies as they continue to ask staff to do more with less. Transformational technologies such as virtualization and cloud technologies allow school administrators to focus less on IT management and more on student education.
