Data Center Evolution – Serving Two Types of Workloads

Traditional Enterprise Workloads

Cloud Scale Workloads

Traditional Data Center Environment

Infrastructure consolidation to

optimize utilization

Typically rich server configurations

Supports advanced management,

and high availability

HyperScale Data Center Environment

Infrastructure tailored to workload to

optimize operational cost

Massive horizontal scaling
