Consolidation » The Challenge

Supporting Your Existing User Base with Fewer Servers

Consolidating two or more similar applications running in multiple environments into a single point solution is often challenging as systems are required to evolve and condensed servers are pushed to higher capacity levels to support growing user populations. As web-based applications are unified, so are the points of entry to critical business systems. This creates a burden on server consolidation goals which strive to reduce server count and total operating costs. Consolidation may reduce the total number of servers, but the total required server capacity remains which is a function of the total number of users. This often forces infrastructure to meet these demands by implementing fewer servers but with significantly higher capacities often driving a higher cost of ownership or jeopardizing quality of service.

Improve Application Efficiency with Hyper-Processing™

Hyper-Processing™ Technology is a powerful tool that gives IT the ability to consolidate applications and reduce total server capacity requirements by improving application efficiency and server capacity. Instead of consolidating two single CPU servers into one dual CPU server, which typically increases infrastructure costs, Hyper-Processing™ enables a single CPU server to perform as well as a dual CPU or better. No need to upgrade servers or purchase additional hardware. This is achieved by optimizing the application source code to enable applications to execute with lower CPU requirements, less memory, and faster execution.

Reduce Servers, Increase Capacity, Improve Performance

Optimizing applications with EkkoExpress can instantly double or triple server capacity while also increasing performance and quality of service for enterprise web applications. This translates to a 3X increase in server consolidation density while improving application performance and transaction speeds. Reduction in servers leads to lower operational costs, reduced power usage, and a significant decrease in total cost of ownership.
