Virtualisation
Saturday, March 15, 2008

Virtualisation was recently listed among the top 10 strategic technologies for 2008 by Gartner. But how can it benefit your business?

Virtualisation is the ability to run multiple virtual servers using one or more physical servers. Instead the traditional method of a single server installed per machine, multiple “virtual servers” can be run on single server. This helps maximise the use of your hardware, ensuring none of your resources go to waste. Virtualisation can also be used to provide redundancy to your environment. If one physical machine fails another can take its place and continue to run virtual servers.

The Cavalry understands the benefits virtualisation to your organisation. CRN reports that ‘virtualisation of resources such as servers, CPUs, storage, switching and appliances can provide significant cost savings as well as support new services and diverse forms of access'.

And in a time where we all must be aware of our environmental impact, the virtualisation of networks means the consolidation of resources reduces power usage and heat dispersion.
