So What is Virtualization?

Virtualization Defined

Virtualization ● virt·tual·iz-a-tion ● [vur-choo-uhl-iz-ey-shuhn]

–noun

Virtualization is the creation of a virtual (rather than actual) version of something, such as an operating system, a server, a storage device or network resources.

What’s Driving Virtualization ?

Today’s IT – Complex, Inefficient, Inflexible

Cause

• Overwhelming complexity

• Reliance on brittle infrastructure

Effect

• >70% of IT budgets just “maintaining” status quo

• <30% of IT budgets goes to innovation and competitive advantage

Where IT Energy Is Spent

Business Agility Depends on IT Agility

What Is Driving Virtualization

Trend #1: Hardware Is Underutilized

Today’s Hardware is more than 100,000 x more powerful than

just 10 short years ago!

What Is Driving Virtualization

Trend #2: Data Centers are out of Space

A recent study by the Enterprise Strategy Group predicted that governments and

corporations will store over 25

exabytes of data by the year 2010.

What Is Driving Virtualization

Trend #3: Energy Costs Are Escalating

Energy Consumption and Cost should not be overlooked as a driving force for

virtualization.

What Is Driving Virtualization

Trend #4: System Administrative Costs Are Rising

As Hardware expands in an environment it needs to be maintained and the time

restraints on IT staffs are being stressed to the limits.

Obviously something isn’t working very well…

…so what should we do?

Making the Business Case for Virtualization

Consolidation - One-time event that moves existing applications onto a fewer number of servers

Containment - An ongoing effort to virtualize new applications and manage growth of existing ones

Availability – Introducing virtualization to increase application availability and data recoverability
