Server Virtualisation
Virtualisation overview
Most businesses today need an effective and efficient IT environment. By consolidating and virtualisating your network you can increase its existing performance. This ensures your infrastructure is more flexible and versatile as a result support and maintenance costs will naturally decline.
Virtualisation also provides benefits such as improved resource utilisation increased flexibility in delivery of services and simplified back-up procedures, platform independence. Organisations will also experience significant peripheral benefits in disaster recovery and the reduced speed of deployment of new applications and services.
What is virtualisation?
Virtualisation essentially lets one server do the job of multiple servers, by sharing the resources of a single computer across multiple environments. Virtual servers let you host multiple operating systems and multiple applications locally and in remote locations, freeing you from physical and geographical limitations. In addition to energy savings and lower capital expenses due to more efficient use of your hardware resources, you get high availability of resources, better management, increased security, and improved disaster recovery processes when you build a virtual infrastructure.
Multiple virtual machines share hardware resources without interfering with each other so that you can safely run several operating systems and applications at the same time on a single physical machine.
VMware solutions involve inserting a layer of software directly on the computer hardware or on a host operating system. This software layer creates virtual machines and contains a virtual machine monitor that allocates hardware resources dynamically and transparently so that multiple operating systems can run concurrently on a single physical computer with no evident change.
