How To Stretch Your Dollars Using Virtualization Technology

More companies are using virtualization to extend ROI on existing equipment.

Organizations are using virtual machine software plus imaging to extend the life of their servers. They find an additional 35% return on the original capital investment.

 

You have one or more servers in your network that you rely on for file and print sharing, email and many other vital business functions. Its expected life span is 3-4 years. After that the failure risk factor increases exponentially and you should replace the server before it crashes and leaves your operations at a standstill. A new server purchase and setup can be a large capital investment that you may prefer to postpone as long as you can eliminate the risk. Good news, there is a way!

Put a device into your network that will act as a clone or copy of your servers when your servers crash and you eliminate the risk of server failure. Imagine a system that will take over all the functions of your server when your server goes down. With this device in place you can run your server to “death” thus extending the usable life from 3-4 years to 5 or 6 years without risk! You just substantially extended the ROI on that server capital investment.

The device that can do this is a Backup and Disaster Recovery (BDR) system. It also backs up your server every 15 minutes and can do Bare Metal Restorations of your “dead” server to new hardware in a few hours instead of spending days configuring a new server. It is another way to save money.
