Short Description
Getting more out of your x86 servers
It’s no surprise that companies large and small are turning to virtualization. Traditional server environments typi-cally operate at only 5 to 15 percent of capacity.

Creating a foundation for business innovation
Although these utilization and consolidation results are important, virtualization is taking on an even more important role today as an enabler of innovation. A successful virtualization project can improve your organization’s ability to respond to new business needs by providing a foundation for a more dynamic IT environment. Server virtualization can facilitate the alignment of IT to business objectives. It can play a
