The Benefits of Becoming Virtualized
- Consolidating saves money – Eliminating server sprawl and consolidating applications onto a single server reduces hardware and maintenance costs by up to 50%.
- Increased efficiency – When IT doesn’t have to order and install a new server every time you deploy new applications, applications can be up and running sooner. Technical issues are also reduced, so your IT department can minimize the time spent on routine maintenance activities by two-thirds.
- Your Company Is Disaster-friendly – Approximately 60% of businesses affected by a disaster close within two years. Virtualization lowers the cost and complexity of backup and recovery.
- More Security – Because your IT staff can move applications from one virtual machine to another, they can apply security patches to the original machine without causing downtime. Also, virtual machines also leave your business less vulnerable to security attacks.
Virtualization is simple: simplify and optimize your infrastructure to increase efficiency and security, while simultaneously lowering your costs. Now that we all understand virtualization, how do you determine what is the best path for your IT environment?
