What is Virtualization?

Virtualization is a proven software technology that makes it possible to run multiple operating systems and applications on the same server at the same time. It’s transforming the IT landscape and fundamentally changing the way that people utilize technology.

Benefits of Virtualization

Virtualization can increase IT agility, flexibility, and scalability while creating significant cost savings. Workloads get deployed faster, performance and availability increases and operations become automated, resulting in IT that's simpler to manage and less costly to own and operate.

  • Reduce capital and operating costs
  • Deliver high application availability
  • Minimize or eliminate downtime.
  • Increase IT productivity, efficiency, agility and responsiveness
  • Speed and simplify application and resource provisioning
  • It is much easier to deploy and scale resources faster, more efficiently and cost-effectively
  • Support business continuity and disaster recovery
  • Enable centralized management
  • Build a true Software-Defined Data Center.
  • Virtualization provides more efficient and cost-effective disaster recovery with near zero downtime compared with legacy physical solutions.
