Virtualization helps hospital improve IT operations
http://www.computerweekly.com/Articles/2008/04/14/230272/leeds-nhs-virtualises-to-streamline-it-processes.htm
Leeds Partnerships NHS Foundation Trust is using virtualisation technology to cut the amount of hardware it uses.
The trust has made 23 of 32 physical servers redundant, which has reduced operational costs, improved flexibility and make it easier to manage the IT infrastructure.
Three of the servers that are no longer needed at the main datacentre have been moved to the trust’s disaster recovery site. A Wan link to the site enables data replication on to the disaster recovery servers – which have also been virtualised – if the need arises.
Very cool, an article showing how this hospital has benefited from virtualization through reducing the number of physical servers, no doubt saving money on the power/cooling as well as the hardware support cost. Do check it out.
