EZINE:
“Workloads in transition” is one way to characterize virtualization, which ranges from physical-to-virtual to virtual-to-virtual and virtual-to-physical. Although each type of migration has its advantages, it has its challenges too. Find out where potential problems lurk, and keep them from dragging down your process.
CASE STUDY:
Southwestern/Great American chose to swap its dual environment (SAP ERP ran off of a legacy IBM AS/400) for a leaner infrastructure based on VMware ESX and IBM blade servers with Intel Xeon processors that could run both SAP ERP and its Windows applications. Read this case study to learn about the combined VMware and Intel solution.
