Software
Is there a server ratio (application to database to general file server) one would expect to find in a mid sized company (150 to 500 employees)?
Thanks

You need more servers for 500 IT professionals than 150 paper boys ;-)
What industry and what type of work? An ISP may have 10 servers per staff member, although that is a guess.

Software development company. Engineering takes care of their own development & QA servers. What I am interested in is what should my business IT environment look like. I am not looking for ratio of servers to people, but rather how many servers would be typical and of those how many would be dedicated to either applications or databases. I am trying to justify a suite that will replace several custom application servers.
Thanks

It would be based on your application's requirements, which should be determined by capacity management.
It's rather like asking how many trucks you need to run a delivery business without having a clue on the volume of packages being handled.
