Virtualization

Application and server virtualization provides another means for deriving maximum utility and value from a business’ hardware investment. From employee desktop computers to the server room, virtualization helps businesses save capital investment and operating expense by consolidating the application burden across fewer servers.

Virtualization eliminates underutilization of existing hardware thereby increasing the operational efficiency of a business’ IT infrastructure without the need for additional hardware capacity. In addition to increasing the return on an existing level of IT investment, businesses will enjoy additional savings by reducing future energy consumption and support costs that would have been incurred without a virtualized environment.

Revolution Group uses virtual infrastructure software to help you create a uniform hardware image upon which your operating systems and applications run. With a single pool of processing, storage, and networking power to be allocated and de-allocated on the fly, the benefits are enormous:

• Reduce hardware costs by up to 50%.
• Reduce server space requirements by 50% or more.
• Reduce downtime by 25–55%.
• Simplify server management, maintenance, and deployment.
• Enable low-cost, reliable data disaster recovery.
