How it works
Additional resources from RISC Networks
Turner Broadcasting System, a global media company, used RISC CloudScape to optimize its on-premises environment to migrate to Amazon Web Services (AWS). The scan revealed 1,000 servers running, but not being utilized. It was identified in one instance that 114 servers weren’t active, at all. They were able to shut down these servers to realize immediate savings. RISC also enabled Turner to analyze their subdivisions and break down the entire migration into smaller, optimized parts, leading to successful migrations.
Prior to bringing RISC in…we had no idea. When we completed the scan…I knew how many servers we had, I knew where they were, and I knew what they talked to. I knew at what capacity they were running, and I knew what they would be when they go to AWS.
