HP end user keynote @ Blade Systems Insight

The next keynote discussed how Pental had benefited from blade technology, transforming their technology to be much more on demand and resilient, meeting the business needs.
It was interesting to hear that the business was having similar issues in terms of performance and reliability from their legacy systems. As an example it was mentioned that email was delayed due to constraints with the anti virus software, as well as downtime to service with some of their application systems.
Using a mixture of blade technology (with HP’s C Class blades) and virtualization they managed to transform their infrastructure, getting rid of their legacy systems, improving performance by 80% and improving reliability. Great examples of using the technology as an enabler to your business, to being more on demand more able to respond to changes in business need, very, very cool.
