Virtualization - how virtual servers work in reality
Virtual Machine Technology and PRIMERGY Servers from Fujitsu Siemens Computers
While CIOs are under pressure to manage the costs of their existing IT infrastructures today, they are also considering how to increase the flexibility needed to react rapidly to changing business requirements and how to increase the reliability of the IT Infrastructure to ensure business continuity.
The goal of Virtualization is to pool processor and storage resources for on-demand use instead of using dedicated systems for individual applications. Enhanced efficiency is one of the most important benefits of this approach since better use is made of available server and storage capacity. At the same time, the IT infrastructure can be adapted to meet new requirements faster and more easily, which makes the company itself more flexible. Fujitsu Siemens Computers offers four basic technologies to support Virtualization of its systems and permit optimal implementation of software and system architectures.
