Nationwide Insurance swaps servers for virtualized mainframes

December 7th, 2006 · No Comments · General

The Columbus, Ohio-based insurance giant had more than 5,000 servers, and 78% of those servers were seeing a peak utilization of less than 50%.

Considering the number of servers it is surprising that someone did not push a virtualization project through earlier.

Woeckener said the company has reduced its Web hosting costs by 50%, hardware and operating system support costs by 50% and data center floor space demands by 80%.
