21. Jack in the Box Business Goals Reduce high operating costs in 2,000 retail locations Improve management line of sight to store operations and critical data “Using Virtual Server 2005, we can immediately upgrade our restaurant hardware and operating system software to take advantage of higher performance, reliability, and management features while running older applications on Windows NT.” says Brian Yates, Director of Restaurant Systems, Jack in the Box. Solution Virtual Server 2005 used to consolidate in store systems and re- host POS and back- office applications 2:1consolidation ratio AD and GP used to used to manage VM’s and provide access rights from Central IT location SQL Server 2000 EE used to transfer data nightly from stores to central IT Results 50% fewer in-store servers, significantly reducing management and support costs Reduced upgrade and patching times Corporate and restaurants have timely access to mission critical data
