whitepaper How Cisco IT Achieves Consolidation and Standardization in the Data Center2007-12-18 Cisco Systems
  The need to manage and build isolated islands for each application cost Cisco IT too much in resources and flexibility, and a solution was required. Underutilization of resources is a major factor in high TCO. Like many enterprises, Cisco is challenged to control the costs and improve the inefficiencies of maintaining a number of nonstandard, siloed business application environments. Cisco is undertaking a radical data center redesign with the goal of creating a single high-performance computer-processing environment powering a wide range of applications and services, including security, application optimization, and management. Although the data center has not yet been fully realized, the foundational technologies are being established on the way toward complete decentralization, virtualization, and dynamic provisioning.

whitepaper Customer Success Story: Juniper Networks, Inc.2007-09-01 Varonis
  The Challenge
Juniper Networks believes that security is an integral requirement of every job function. As such, many groups within Juniper IT share responsibility for security policy creation, compliance, awareness and training. The challenge in managing unstructured data on file servers has been that different IT groups share a security charter, but not the means to control and administer this information. And, because access to information and ideas is such a driving force of innovation at Juniper Networks, well-intentioned IT and helpdesk groups must mitigate the risk of being overly permissive in granting employee access to file shares.

The Solution
For access control and monitoring of its unstructured data, Juniper Networks deployed Varonis DatAdvantage.

whitepaper Norwich University Consolidates Data Center and Storage, Gains Nearly $1.2 Million in Benefits With Complete HP Solution2007-09-11 Hewlett-Packard (HP)
  Norwich University wanted to consolidate its data center, increase and virtualize available storage, provide for off-site server/storage management, and provide robust, redundant and reliable access to computing resources 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The university deployed a SAN based on the Hewlett-Packard StorageWorks Enterprise Virtual Array (EVA5000 system), fused with NAS (Hewlett-Packard NAS 4000); and the award-winning, Hewlett-Packard ProLiant blade servers. This resulted into a projected, cumulative five-year net benefit of $1,162,271, driven by savings in support costs, the ability to provide services without downtime, and avoiding having to buy expensive, directly attached storage. An ROI of 487% and a payback period of 12 months.
