Most organizations faced with budget challenges put off capital expenditures (capex) and seek alternatives, such as extending server life cycles and extending software licenses. This paper demonstrates that such a buy and hold strategy actually adds costs to the datacenter. In fact, refreshing server infrastructure on pace with newer technology (e.g., every two years) can reduce six-year server costs by 33%  compared with buying and holding servers for those six years.
