Organizations are looking to leverage virtualization technologies to help them consolidate resources, reduce costs, and improve management for their server and storage infrastructures.

But in doing so, many organizations fail to consider the overall impact of virtualization on the data center – thereby opening the door to degraded application performance, inadequate data protection, and increased management complexity.

As a result, they may be unable to satisfy SLAs, achieve compliance, or meet data growth requirements.

However, the right data center virtualization strategy will optimize application and fabric performance, improve data protection, and unify management across entire virtual data center environments.

Furthermore, by leveraging a holistic strategy, you can take advantage of virtualization without experiencing unnecessary costs and headaches while reducing business risk and achieving a faster ROI.

We interview Todd Broadhurst to gain Brocade's perspective on virtualization strategies.
