12. What is Virtualization?
• Description
– Virtualization is a proven software technology
that is rapidly transforming the IT landscape
and fundamentally changing the way that
people compute.
– Virtualization makes it possible to run multiple
operating systems and multiple applications on
the same SERVER at the same time.
• Benefit
– Virtualization allows you to reduce IT costs
while increasing the efficiency, utilization and
flexibility of your existing x86 computer
hardware.
