Baylor College of Medicine, located in Houston, Texas, has a clear organizational mission-to be a national leader in advancing healthcare. Baylor needed an economical, energy-smart consolidation solution that would enable them to virtualize their IT environment and set the stage for a major SAP upgrade. The Baylor IT team considered a number of vendor options for its data center upgrade project. They decided that the best solution for their mission-critical processing needs was IBM Power 570 servers with POWER processor-based technology, running IBM PowerVM. This configuration meets Baylor's need for performance, scalability and flexibility in an energy-efficient format.
