AIG Technologies Intros Server Consolidation Services
AIG Technologies Inc (AIGT), a member company of American International Group
Inc (AIG), announced the launch of a server consolidation service utilizing
its proprietary InfraOpt (Infrastructure Optimization) methodology. InfraOpt
is AIGT's structured approach to assess computing processing requirements and
costs to design a more scalable, efficient processing environment. AIGT
developed InfraOpt through its experience in building and consolidating
distributed computing environments.
"Widespread implementation of distributed systems, particularly those
supporting web-enabled applications, has resulted in a proliferation of
underutilized servers across computing environments," said Paul Madarasz,
president of AIGT. "Server consolidation can deliver numerous business
benefits, ranging from helping to rationalize the distributed architecture
into fewer, more capable physical servers to lowering operating costs. We have
consistently helped our customers realize a 50 percent to 75 percent reduction
in physical servers."
AIGT's certified server consolidation specialists utilize the InfraOpt
methodology to study a company's distributed server infrastructure to
determine feasibility for consolidation. AIGT works with its customers to
develop a business case to evaluate the financial impact and return on
investment of consolidation. Applying the results of the study and analysis,
AIGT designs and implements a consolidated server environment by virtualizing
the Central Processing Unit (CPU) and memory usage, disk input/output and
network resources. The solution optimizes performance and lowers total cost of
ownership (TCO) by reducing the amount of hardware and real estate required to
satisfy distributed processing requirements.
Benefits of employing AIGT's server consolidation service include:
- Reduced TCO through improved utilization.
- Reduced total cost of acquisition (TCA).
- Reduced raised floor space requirements.
- Improved scalability and flexibility.
- Optimized production and development hardware environment.
- Improved disaster recovery and business continuity capabilities.
- Improved deployment times of new servers.
AIGT's server consolidation service can be customized to meet a company's
specific needs, with deployment options ranging from on-site, customer-managed
solutions to a managed service leveraging AIGT's data centers, hosting
capabilities and disaster recovery facilities.
