whitepaper Solution Brief: Dell Equalogic PS Series Can Offer Robust, High-Availability Infrastructure for Microsoft's 2008 R2 HYPER-V2009-11-04 Dell EqualLogic
  Virtualization has become a popular IT strategy for enhancing hardware utilization, helping organizations decrease power, cooling, and data center footprint costs, and enhance the flexibility of IT. While virtualization can offer a wide range of IT benefits, running multiple applications on each physical server can place availability at risk. If a physical server fails, all the virtualized applications running on that server could become unavailable. Even temporary downtime can impair worker productivity and jeopardize revenue.

whitepaper Two Global Firms Save More Than $500,000 Through Virtualization and Volume Licensing2009-09-01 Microsoft
  Global training and consulting firm, FranklinCovey Co., and global retailer, FranklinCovey Products, took advantage of a Microsoft Enterprise Agreement and Hyper-V virtualization software to reduce software licensing costs while expanding capabilities. They upgraded to the Enterprise CAL Suite and used Windows Server 2008 Datacenter with Hyper-V to create separate virtual environments for each company's operations. Each used Windows Server 2008 Terminal Services to host remote connectivity applications without a virtual private network. As a result, FranklinCovey Co. saved more than U.S.$500,000 in hardware, licensing, and energy costs. FranklinCovey Products saved $150,000 on call center setup and more than $90,000 on hardware and licensing for its internal domain. Both reduced software testing time by 70 percent and expedited deployment and training with Software Assurance benefits.
