Today’s Server Infrastructure Challenges Growing Costs and Complexity
Spiraling Operating and Administration Costs
Accelerating Demands for Performance and Capacity
Growing Complexity and Risk Driven by Server Proliferation
Need to Protect Investments in existing Applications and Skill Sets

Benefits of Consolidation and Virtualization
Increased server utilization– Lower acquisition costs– Reduced service costs– Reduced power and cooling costs
Improved capacity and response time– Newer and faster processors, interconnects, and I/O
Smaller foot print– Reduced data center infrastructure costs
Increased flexibility– Faster time to deployment of new applications

Distributed headroom
• One app per server leads to overload or extra headroom
• Consolidate many apps to share and reduce headroom

Benefits of SMP
Single, shared memory image Easier application deployment
– Data partitioning not needed
– Least complex software environment
– Least complex storage and networking environment
Extreme system bandwidth Extreme I/O bandwidth Can be partitioned using virtualization tools Easy to dynamically re-assigned resources No limitations on workloads
“Shared Memory Processing”
