“Our Capacity Planners and Solution Architects have been able to use the Server Consolidation module in IDEAS Advantage to establish which approach best fits our organization and what savings we can expect to achieve," says Richard Scott, CTO of Guardian. “We are using IDEAS performance rankings, RPE2, to help us with server sizing and capacity planning as they allow us to compare the performance of our existing infrastructure against new servers that are now becoming available. The IDEAS data tools are also helping us to establish a cost per performance unit measurement for future server acquisitions.”
IDEAS says it provides the Advantage service to many large global institutions, which helps Solution Architects analyze the best solutions available in the market. IDEAS Advantage distils a broad array of public and non-public data into an easy to use tool that helps architects make decisions faster and allows for easier and more accurate comparisons than by using public data.
