Virtualization is a proven software technology that is rapidly transforming the IT landscape and fundamentally changing the way enterprise servers are commissioned. Today’s powerful x86 computer hardware was designed to run a single operating system and a single application. This leaves most machines vastly underutilized.

Virtualization lets you run multiple virtual machines on a single physical machine, sharing the resources of that single computer across multiple environments. Different virtual machines can run different operating systems and multiple applications on the same physical computer. While others are leaping aboard the virtualization bandwagon, VMware is already “the market leader” in virtualization. Virtualization dramatically improves the efficiency and availability of resources and applications in your organization. Internal resources are underutilized under the old “one server, one application” model and IT administrators spend too much time managing servers rather than innovating. An automated datacenter, built on a VMware virtualization platform, lets you respond to market dynamics faster and more efficiently than ever before. VMware customers typically save 50-70% on overall IT costs by consolidating their resource pools and delivering highly available machines with VMware vSphere. Benefits;

• Run multiple operating systems on a single computer including Windows, Linux and more.

• Let your Mac run Windows creating a virtual PC environment for all your Windows applications.

• Reduce capital costs by increasing energy efficiency and requiring less hardware and increasing your server to admin ratio.

• Ensure your enterprise applications perform with the highest availability and performance.

• Build up business continuity through improved disaster recovery solutions and deliver high availability throughout the datacenter.

• Improve enterprise desktop management & control with faster deployment of desktops and fewer support calls due to application conflicts. VMWare Virtualization can prove itself to be a robust platform and major cost saver in your next financial budget.
