Delivering Real Results with Virtualization

Capgemini has helped a range of companies realize the business benefits of separating IT hardware from the services it supports through virtualization. In one case, a large media firm with a well-run and consolidated data center had a utilization level of around 30%. Capgemini helped virtualize 90% of the applications running on their servers, allowing for the removal of over two thirds of their machines.

In addition, we recently used our expertise to help electronics giant Ricoh benefit from reduced IT costs, simplified IT, and increased flexibility after a successful virtualization optimization assessment. Our rapid IT assessment cut straight to the heart of the problem by proposing a remote access strategy with virtualization to:

• Drive out infrastructure costs
• Centralize administration
• Boost user productivity
