BDNA for Consolidation

“BDNA found almost 3,000 servers
we didn’t know about. That’s
$8 million dollars!”

IT Director, Global Technology Vendor

Industry research shows that often 15% of servers handle over 80% of your computing needs. Thus, consolidation initiatives including data center consolidation, server consolidation and virtualization, can deliver substantial savings over time. BDNA helps you realize those savings faster.

 

“Virtualization; consolidates servers by an average of 35%, reducing hardware, software, power and facilities costs.”

- Enterprise Management Associates White Paper, “Three Immediate Initiatives to Cut IT Costs, and Keep Them Down”

The first step in any consolidation effort is creating an accurate technology baseline. Using this baseline, you can make intelligent decisions to minimize disruption and maximize your savings – which servers to physically consolidate, where to virtualize and more. And, with BDNA Maps, you’ll know what other systems will be affected by these decisions – before the fact, not after.

BDNA discovers all your data center hardware, software and virtual machines in a few days. Our experts then help you identify opportunities and measure results.
