    Virtualization – VMware, Hyper-V, or KVM

    For small businesses with too many underutilized servers or escalating IT costs, virtualization offers relief by fundamentally changing the way IT resources are managed and deployed. Virtualization provides unmatched flexibility, performance, and utilization by allowing you to move server workloads from one virtual workspace to the next, maximizing server resources on the fly based on your workspace to the next, maximizing server resources on the fly based on your business needs.

    10 Reasons to virtualize your environment:

        1. Save energy
        2. Reduce the data center footprint
        3. Build QA or lab environments quickly
        4. Faster server provisioning
        5. Reduce hardware vendor dependency
        6. Increase uptime
        7. Improve disaster recovery time
        8. Isolate applications
