The Hidden Costs of Self-Signed SSL Certificates

The total cost of ownership (TCO) of an SSL certificate is far more than just the price of the certificate. From security hardware, to management software, to data centre space and more, the costs of establishing a secure self-signing architecture can quickly add up.

A common way to increase application availability in a physical environment is to deploy a traditional high-availability clustering solution. IT administrators can move applications for server maintenance with zero downtime and no data loss. The operating-system isolation that VMware virtualization natively provides makes it simple for a small set of highly consolidated servers to provide very high uptime at reduced administrative cost.
