Data Return's Success with Virtualization
Data Return is a managed services provider (MSP), and offers managed hosting and IT operations outsourcing services. Data Return customers like H&R Block maintain some of the world's busiest Websites, although the traffic is often seasonal, leaving purchased infrastructure unused other times of the year. Data Return implemented a virtualization solution based on Dual-Core AMD Opteron™ processors running VMware® virtual infrastructure software on HP ProLiant® DL385 and DL585 servers. The energy efficiencies of the Dual-Core AMD Opteron processor helped Data Return achieve a smaller footprint with greater rack density, and power savings were even greater with virtualization software, making it possible to run more servers on fewer physical machines; the new solution delivered on the promise of lower costs, reduced energy consumption, flexibility, and high availability.
