A key step for server consolidation projects is to understand how traffic is balanced amongst servers for a given application. In this example, showing server traffic for the "XA" application, the most heavily used server is processing ten times the traffic of the least used server, indicating an opportunity to balance the processing across a smaller number of servers. The next step in the server consolidation process would be to analyze the processing on these servers using Vantage Server Monitoring to validate the load-balancing recommendations.
