VMware White Paper Sample

Server virtualization is an IT strategy that saves money and improves efficiency. By separating applications and operating systems from their underlying hardware, companies can reduce equipment and management expenses, implement high availability and disaster recovery procedures that were previously too expensive and complex, and make the business more responsive—to users, and to change. When considering the benefits of virtualization, don’t just look at the cost saving of hardware and energy cost but consider business uptime particularly as downtime that eats away at revenue is virtually eliminated. With these types of benefits, most companies find it easy to justify the cost of implementing virtualization.

VMware provides an enterprise-class virtualization solution with robust management and availability features that automate mundane IT tasks. VMware understands that smaller companies may be more risk averse than large enterprises, and with a smaller window for transition, need to see value more quickly. Still, businesses want to reduce costs and complexity, free up management time, be more responsive to users, and easily rebound from disasters. With this in mind, VMware built the vSphere 4 Essentials ps to make the transition quick, easy, and impactful. IT administrators find VMware simple to install, operate, and maintain, so whether you are new to virtualization or expanding it, VMware delivers measurable value that is difficult to ignore.
