Virtualization
Connecting in a Virtual World
While operating in a “virtual” world sounds exciting and modern, it may or may not be the solution for your continued business productivity. Understanding just what “virtualization” means is the place to start.
What is Virtualization?
Virtualization… often mistaken for cloud computing (but can work in tandem with the cloud)...is a method in which your operating systems, servers, storage devices, and other network resources run virtually (instead of actually). For example, you could run multiple operating systems and/or multiple applications on one server at the same time, saving costs and increasing efficiencies. IT systems become independent of some physical hardware—in essence, software that manipulates your hardware.
While there are many advantages to virtualization for your IT environment, moving to this platform is probably a decision companies should not make on their own.
Why Go Virtual? What Are the Benefits of Virtualization?
There are some great benefits for companies who decide to use a combined private cloud in a virtualized environment. This scenario gives companies more control of the environment and the flexibility to manage their own systems, while still relying on hosted equipment, security, and other necessary features for high-end computing. Scalability is often a factor for evolving businesses in a cyclical or changing economy, and virtualization is one way to get it. A virtualization model for your IT infrastructure results in maximized resources, multiple operating systems, and efficiency in budget considerations.
How Do I Know If Virtualization Is Right For Me?
Deciding on a virtualization model for business requires an assessment and analysis of your IT systems. A number of important questions must be answered about your current support system, integration needs, and cost factors, degree of ownership, scalability, security, and more. Virtualization is often desirable when a company desires greater control and security.
