Customer testimonial: BladeCenter S and the New Orleans Saints

When the New Orleans Saints football team needed to best utilize space, improve data availability and enable IT portability, they relied on IBM BladeCenter S to consolidate 20 servers and virtualize their applications with VMware. With integrated servers, storage, networking and I/O, BladeCenter S provided key benefits and portability; the BladeCenter S doesn’t require a data center environment and uses standard power plugs, so the team can take it on the road.
