Session:

Reducing Energy Consumption with More Flexible and Reliable Virtual Infrastructure

Presenter:

VMware, WYSE

Whether you must overcome a power and cooling crisis in your data center or merely want to save the planet, virtual infrastructure can help and save a lot of money in the process! Learn about data center power consumption and how VMware Infrastructure is going beyond server consolidation to address this problem with innovative new functionality and initiatives. Virtual infrastructure provides a superior approach to power management because an entire system and its state can be captured and dynamically moved across your physical infrastructure. After this session you will know how VMware's latest technology can proactively manage power consumption and why virtualization is the best solution to rescue your IT infrastructure from increasing energy consumption and costs. Learn from a VMware customer, Wyse Technology, about how they reduce power and cooling using VMware virtualization. The power and cooling impact of hosting desktops on a virtual infrastructure and using thin clients will also be discussed.
