Virtualize with VMware

Virtualization enables IT organizations to take a physical resource and create a virtual version of it. Computers, networks, applications, storage devices and servers can all be virtualized. It’s most common to virtualize servers since it’s very inefficient to deploy physical x86 servers for each and every discrete operating system or specialized application.

Virtualization software such as VMware simulates the existence of computer hardware to allow multiple operating systems and applications to run on a single, physical server that allows for greater efficiencies and economies of scale. But although many organizations opt to manage their VMware on-premise, it does take expertise and resources. Organizations should consider the advantages of turning to an experienced partner that can manage their VMware deployment and extend it to the cloud.
