IT virtualisation might sound like something from the future, but it is the now for many businesses. IT virtualisation simply means creating a virtual version of a device such as a server, storage device, network or an operating system.

Cost
Savings

Reduce hardware and energy costs by consolidating multiple systems onto virtual machines, optimising resource utilisation.

Flexibility &
Scalability

Easily deploy, manage, and scale IT resources as needed, adapting quickly to business demands without physical infrastructure changes.

Enhanced Business Continuity

Improve uptime and disaster recovery with virtualised environments, ensuring seamless failover and minimising downtime.

PC

Error-free software development

The IT infrastructure sprawl means many businesses can only run one operating system and application at a time. This can increase costs and slow down productivity in the process. IT virtualisation enables small, medium and large businesses to pool all systems into one easy to use access point. It is commonly associated with a number of computing technologies, including:

  • Storage virtualisation: the joining of multiple network storage devices into a single storage unit
  • Server virtualisation: the partitioning a physical server into smaller virtual servers
  • Operating system virtualisation: a type of server virtualisation technology which works at the operating system (kernel) layer
  • Network virtualisation: using network resources through a logical segmentation of a single physical network

5 reasons to consider IT virtualisation

If you’re trying to decide if virtualisation is right for your organization, whether from an economic or technological standpoint, consider these reasons for taking the virtualisation plunge:

Virtualisation reduces the number of servers you have to run, which means savings on hardware costs and also on the total amount of energy needed to run hardware and provide cooling.

ABC

With virtualisation in place, system administrators would not have to support so many machines and could then move from firefighting to more strategic administration tasks

Virtualisation enables higher utilisation rates of hardware because each server supports enough virtual machines to increase its utilisation from the typical 15% to as much as 80%.

ABC

With software vendors tending more and more towards delivering their products pre-installed in virtual machines (also known as virtual appliances), much of the traditional installation and configuration work associated with software will disappear

Virtualisation is a green technology through and through. Energy savings brought on by widespread adoption of virtualisation would help your business with its environmental policies.
