A Microsoft Corporation Case Study
Infosys, a leading technology and consulting firm, faced challenges with its growing and inefficient Microsoft SharePoint infrastructure, which consisted of numerous redundant farms leading to high capital and operating costs. To consolidate its IT environment and establish a more fault-tolerant architecture, Infosys turned to Microsoft Consulting Services and Premier Support for a solution.
With Microsoft's help, Infosys redesigned and centralized its SharePoint architecture, leveraging virtualization with Microsoft Hyper-V Server. This consolidation resulted in a 50% reduction in farms and a 40% cut in server costs. The project is expected to save Infosys US$900,000 over three years, while also improving scalability, speeding up application deployment, and enhancing overall governance and collaboration.
