Virtualization is a proven software technology that is rapidly transforming the IT landscape and fundamentally changing the way that people compute.
Virtualization technology it’s happening now The virtualization revolution seems to have arrived and there seems to be no turning back. The technology that will increase hardware utilization while reducing hardware requirements is taking the business world by storm. There will be considerable server consolidation and reduced rack space and power because of this consolidation. While making the IT infrastructure more flexible it will enable broad based cost effective application availability. It will eliminate the need for cumbersome software installation and configuration with virtual appliances. It will accelerate application development and deployment lifecycles. It will work by optimizing dynamically and intelligently available resources among the virtual machines saving time and money. Up till now computer hardware was originally designed to run only a single operating system and a single application, but virtualization breaks that bond. That has changed increasing the utilization and flexibility of hardware. This virtualization is for real. - |
