Dell Case Study: Ryerson University

The ever-increasing demand for IT services at the university put significant stress on IT staff and data center capacity. Ryerson University wanted to speed server provisioning; reduce space, power, and cooling needs; and implement rapid disaster recovery. As a solution Dell Infrastructure Consulting Services led a project to identify underutilized servers and consolidate onto Dell PowerEdge blade servers running VMware Infrastructure 3 and mirrored Dell/EMC storage area networks.
