Commenting on the report, an analyst from TechNavio’s Data Center team said: ”Enterprises across the globe are witnessing an increase in the convergence of enterprise networks. The consolidation of various data center facilities into a single location and the provisioning of the computing resources from a centralized location are changing the way enterprises are meeting their computing requirements. Enterprises have various data center facilities located in different locations, which makes it difficult for them to manage the facilities remotely. To ease the management process, enterprises are opting for consolidation of the facilities to a single centralized location. Consolidation of enterprise networks also allows a reduction in the costs associated with powering and cooling the facility.”
According to the report, one of the major drivers for end-user adoption is the lower costs associated with blade servers. Adoption of blade servers leads to lower power consumption and increased productivity of the existing infrastructure.
Further, the report states that one of the major challenges being faced is the need for high initial investment for the adoption of blade servers. Blade servers require racks and other pre-requisite equipment to be incorporated as a part of the enterprise infrastructure, which increases the initial establishment and adoption costs of blade servers.
