Over the past two decades, Information Technology has witnessed the morphing of computing environments from single large monolithic entities to widely distributed server configurations. The initial promise of less costly, more scalable and flexible platforms has not been realized. To the contrary, many organizations have found that a consolidation of distributed servers back to a more centralized approach offers greater control, standardization, performance and cost savings. This swing back of the pendulum should be considered by all organizations to determine if it is appropriate to redefine their computing environment. This paper addresses the issues involved in server consolidation opportunities and offers recommendations for initiating this effort. |
