Overview:
We have a decision to make: do we keep on driving “old reliable” or do we make a major investment in a new ride? What is it costing to keep on doing the same thing? Eventually, the time and money spent in the garage and at the gas station will convince you when it is time to replace your car. A similar, and more profound, scenario is playing out in the data center of every enterprise, large or small, that has a proprietary legacy server infrastructure in place.


Does anyone know how old the applications are or the continuing costs of support? How many lines of code are running your sensitive mission- and business-critical applications with no one around to change a single line when a policy change forces an update to the application? What is the cost to maintain the applications? Moreover, what is the impact of your IT infrastructure on the monthly energy bill? Systems designed before the energy crisis and the advent of multi-core CPUs did not account for the cost of electricity in their design specs. In this down economy, now is the time to examine the total cost of ownership (TCO) of your proprietary server infrastructure and migrate to a more cost-effective open systems platform designed for tomorrow. Read how you can do this running Dell™ 11th Generation PowerEdge™ servers based on Intel Xeon® 5500 processor Series.
