Just down the road from our Raleigh headquarters, North Carolina State University was facing a familiar IT challenge: fragmented infrastructure, volatile licensing costs and skill silos. When their virtualization vendor's pricing model changed, IT Manager Shawn Taylor knew a patchwork fix wouldn't be enough.
