Virtualization offers solutions to simplify and consolidate your IT infrastructure maximizing your resources and IT spend. At the same time, Virtualization gives your business back the agility it needs to better handle growth and market dynamics.

Features

Optimize and manage from the desktop to the datacenter.

Virtualization essentially lets one computer do the job of multiple computers, by sharing the resources of a single computer across multiple environments. Virtual servers and virtual desktops let you host multiple operating systems and multiple applications locally and in remote locations, freeing you from physical and geographical limitations. In addition to energy savings and lower capital expenses due to more efficient use of your hardware resources, you get high availability of resources, better desktop management, increased security, and improved disaster recovery processes when you build a virtual infrastructure.
