Data Center Evolution – Serving Two Types of Workloads

Traditional Data Center Environment Infrastructure consolidation to

optimize utilization Typically rich server configurations Supports advanced management,

and high availability

HyperScale Data Center Environment Infrastructure tailored to workload to

optimize operational cost Massive horizontal scaling Hardware resiliency less important
