ThinkServer Buying Guide

Your IT infrastructure is as singular as your business plan, and each enterprise has its own unique set of requirements for a server deployment. For recommendations on which ThinkServer best supports your key applications, visit the chart below.

Key factors to consider when selecting and configuring the right server solution for your business include:

Work Capacity: : How many users or applications do you expect to be running on your servers? This is very important, because you want to make sure your solution can handle that quantity without compromising on productivity.

Purpose: What primary purpose will your server solution perform in your business operations? Are these file-and- print servers or servers to host advanced Web applications? Clearly understanding the purpose of your servers will guide you to select the server with the right performance, features, and options for a complete solution.

Existing infrastructure: Is your current server infrastructure located in several regional offices, or at a central location? Does your current server infrastructure leverage any specific technologies over others? Understanding your current business technology will help you select a server solution that seamlessly fits into your infrastructure, thereby reducing complexity and cost.
