Go Virtual, Get Green, Save Money, & Be a Hero!
In this tough economy many companies are scrambling to virtualize to cut costs and promote a green environment. Others would like to but with budgetary constraints and freezes they just can’t get the funding to take on a VMware virtualization initiative. Even with the promises of ROI on their horizon once they do so it just doesn’t seem enough for some organizations. Well I’m here to say so what, don’t let a light budget get in your way.
Start with the low hanging fruit, development, and staging machines. Take the initiative to take advantage of these free hypervisors and save your organization some money. Once you do reap the reward. Keep track of how much money you just saved your organization, let everyone know, and not only will you get recognized, but you will just have gained some job security. I’m surprised more organizations are offering cost savings initiative to hep try and curb the expenses and cut back. Think about it, if your company offered a bonus based on savings everyone would be looking for ways to cut costs and cash in on the savings.
