TCO – know the facts

The Business Case for TCO Analysis

Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) measures the economics of your IT assets over their useful service life. Many decision makers fail to look beyond the up-front investment. Before you decide on a new IT platform aligned with the business strategy of your organization, be sure to assess all direct and indirect costs involved over the entire lifecycle.

Reduced Software License Costs
Greater performance of HP Integrity and ProLiant means much lower licensing costs. There's less to manage and pay for across your whole infrastructure.
Modernization
HP Integrity and ProLiant servers offer the latest in blade technology, which can reduce your space and energy consumption even further. HP systems are highly flexible, and can run multiple operating systems including HP-UX 11i, HP OpenVMS, Microsoft® Windows® Server, Linux, and HP NonStop.
Virtualization and Workload Management
Virtualization solutions from HP and HP partners can adapt workloads to meet business requirements quickly and with mission-critical reliability. Virtualization can lower data center costs by up to 40%.
