EDS - VMWare Case Studies Success Story

Found a whole bunch of case study success stories for the implementation of VMWare ESX server and this particular one caught my eye as this company is quite big in Australia and manages many big international companies as well.

Basically the company EDS is one of the world’s largest IT services businesses, with a global
client list that includes General Motors, UK Ministry of Defence and Kraft Foods. Australian customers include the Australian Taxation Office, Westpac Banking Corporation, Telstra and the Commonwealth Bank of Australia. The company maintains an Australian workforce of more than 6,000 and its portfolio of off erings includes business process outsourcing, information technology outsourcing and application services.

Why this particular case study is so interesting is how they are using server virtualisation to create virtual servers etc for there own customers needs, and on a huge scale with many benefits in cost reduction, speed to market, greenhouse gas emissions reduction etc in a small amount of time.
