What are analysts saying?

“Consolidation, virtualization, and provisioning

are the three hottest trends in servers today. If
you haven’t consolidated yet… if you haven’t
virtualized your computing resources… and if you
haven’t learned how to provision your systems and
storage—you’re needlessly wasting your precious
operating budget!”
—Joe Clabby, Clabby Analytics
Virtualization Adoption
So… What is Virtualization?
Virtualization is a technique for abstracting the physical characteristics of computing
resources from the way other systems, applications, or end users
interact with those resources.
