Many IT organizations struggle to remain afloat in a sea of servers, each of which is dedicated to running a single application. Large datacenters may contain tens of thousands of servers, each consuming a few hundred watts of power and emitting over a thousand BTUs per hour. This paper explores how a combination of dual- and quad-core processors, advanced virtualization technologies, and highly scalable four- and eight-way industry-standard servers may be used to create datacenters with fewer physical machines that use less power, generate less heat, and do more work, while simplifying the tasks of those who must build, install, operate, and maintain them.
