Around the world, companies of every size are benefiting from VMware virtualization. Thousands of organizations—including all of the Fortune 100—use VMware virtualization solutions.
Virtualization (ex: desktop virtualization) is a technique for creating a virtual (rather than physical) version of an operating system, a desktop, a server, a storage device or network resources. This technology reduces physical space requirements for the datacenter, reducing operational and capital costs, centralizing administrative tasks, improving uptime, increasing the speed of deployment of new servers and applications and enhancing disaster recovery and business continuity solutions.
Top 5 Reasons to Virtualize
1.
Reduce datacenter costs by reducing physical infrastructure and improving the server to admin ratio: Fewer servers and related IT hardware means reduced real estate, power and cooling requirements
2.
Get more out of your existing resources: Pool common infrastructure resources and break the legacy “one application to one server” model with server consolidation
3.
Increase availability of hardware and applications for improved business continuity: Securely backup and migrate entire virtual environments with no interruption in service. Eliminate planned downtime and recover immediately from unplanned issues
4.
Gain operational flexibility: Respond to market changes with dynamic resource management, faster server provisioning and improved desktop and application deployment
5.
Improve desktop manageability and security: Deploy, manage and monitor secure desktop environments that users can access locally or remotely, with or without a network connection, on almost any standard desktop, laptop or tablet PC
Adopting VMware’s solutions can have dramatic results. VMware virtual infrastructure users have reported: ost savings of more than $3,000 annually for every workload virtualized; ability to provision new applications in minutes instead of days or weeks; and an 85% improvement in recovery time from unplanned downtime.
