departments are squeezing efficiencies out of existing infrastructure. To accomplish this, they’re

demand within the data center. While upgrading and virtualizing is all the rage, IT departments are
still supporting legacy applications that continue to drive value and store critical data, leading to
heterogeneous IT environments.
