VMware and Intel are a wInnIng allIance for
allIed electronIcs
Allied Electics (Allied) is a small de, high sevice level distibut electic cmpets ad
electmechaical pducts with 55 sales baches acss the Uited States ad i Caada.
F a cmpay that ships ealy 5,000 packages evey day, access t key stwae applicatis plays a citica
le i esuig that packages make it ut the d time. “"We ca't ad t have ay sigicat system
dwtime as we ae a
custme-ieted gaizati," said Cal Sutt, IT Diect at Allied. "As a esult, u plicy is that ay
applicati sevice that we deply must be edudat. The VMwae platm plays ight it u Sevic
Level Ageemets (SLA) Allied Electics.”
VMwae Iastuctue 3, uig Itel pweed hadwae, has pvided a high degee edudacy
Allied’s ce IT iastuctue. Additially, the way that VMwae ad Itel techlgies wk tgethe
has esued a high degee pemace. “The achitectue that Itel has develped allws a lt the
vitualizati cmputig t be faded t the pcess itsel,” said David McCmbs, systems egiee a

“Like most companies, we started with virtualization as a way to
eliminate server sprawl and get better utilization out of our servers
Now, our VMware and Intel based virtualization solution is playing
a serious role in our disaster recovery discussions.”

HIGHLIGHTS
CHALLENGE
Steamlie IT vehead assciated with
physical seves while stegtheig busiess
ctiuity capabilities
SOLUTION
VMwae® techlgy ceates a vitual
iastuctue that simplies IT admiistati
ad iceases availability ad edudacy

RESULTS
Icease uptime ad edudacy
ce applicatis. “ou Itel
based hadwae ceates a sigle
cmpatibility pl eatues like
VMwae High Availability,” says
McCmbs. “I we lse a seve, we’ll
ly be dw a cuple secds
bee we get u missi citical
seves back up ad uig.”
Impve seve utilizati by 60
pecet. “Vitualizati was a
geat way t tasiti a lt
u ce apps m lde, ut--
date hadwae t VMwae ESX
hypeviss uig the latest ad
geatest Itel pcesss,” says
McCmbs. “We’e able t get 80
pecet utilizati ates u
seves athe tha 10-20 pecet.”
Ceate a vitualizati stadad
IT iastuctue. “We'e cuetl
i ‘VMwae-st’ mde,” say
Sutt. “Thee's aely gig t be
a istace whee a applicati
wuld’t be vitualized. Accdigly
we wat t make sue evey piece
the vitualizati sluti is slid
ad eliable, ad Itel deitely
pvides that.”
