Assessing Virtualization Costs
Start by evaluating your existing virtualization licenses and whether you are fully utilizing them. Consider if your workloads are running in the most efficient locations and if outdated servers or mixed vendor infrastructure are causing inefficiencies. Analyzing these factors can help you identify areas for cost reduction and optimization.
To avoid vendor lock-in, consider adopting an open-source hypervisor and assess how easily you can migrate VMs or data across different platforms. This flexibility allows you to provision workloads on any platform, whether on-premises or in the cloud, while maintaining control over costs and compliance.
Optimizing Resource Usage
To optimize resource usage, unify your virtualization management and avoid running storage and network functions on VMs. This can help free up CPU cycles for business applications. Additionally, using tools like HPE CloudPhysics can provide insights into workload placement and help balance resources effectively.
