Operating a large application server farm is an expensive proposition. In enterprise data centers it's not uncommon to find that the average server utilization is as little as 10%. The static nature of application deployment and the variable loads typical in web applications mean that IT departments allocate many more servers than are typically needed for any given application. Cassatt's Java Virtualization software integrates with the BEA WebLogic Platform to offer a new style of application management that allows for improved utilization, reduced costs and dramatically improved roll out times for new applications.
