Virtualization

Virtualization lets one computer do the job of multiple computers, by sharing the resources of a single computer across multiple environments. Grown out of 40 years of experimental research, virtualization has proven its ability to deliver extremely cost-effective and flexible infrastructures.

Why is Virtualization important?

Server sprawl infiltrates most organizations, along with its accompanying costs and complexity. Enterprises save on operating costs by consolidating systems and better managing infrastructure growth. A virtual infrastructure gives administrators the advantage of managing pooled resources across the enterprise, making IT managers more responsive to dynamic organizational needs, and better leveraging infrastructure investments. Additionally, in a virtual environment, system administrators manage and optimize resources globally, across the entire enterprise, but end-users view resources as if they were dedicated to them.

Virtualization reduces costs by lowering computing, facility, and utility needs. Generally, typical server utilizations range from 5% to 30%. Consolidated systems operate at a higher utilization, which represent significant reductions in facilities, operations, hardware, and software costs. A 5:1 consolidation ratio is reasonably attainable, although, in sub-production environments, ratios as high as 10:1 or 20:1 are achievable.
