Two major areas Virtualization can have a visible impact:

1. Server Virtualization
2. Desktop Virtualization

Server Virtualization directly reduces cost

Multi-core, multi-cpu servers are commonplace and quite affordable. Coupled with low Memory and disk prices, it's almost certain most of your newer servers are not being utlized anywhere near their computing capacity. With server Virtualization technologies like Xen and OpenVZ, one physical server can be partitioned to host multiple logical virtual servers directly reducing costs.

Benefits:

	Reduce Power Usage
	Reduce Maintenance costs by running same OS image
	Easier backup and recovery: Backup one physical server instead of many
	Migrate virtual servers easily between physical machines
	Send to external clouds

Desktop virtualization for control & maintenance

Desktop Virtualization technology makes available desktop OS images to individual workstations instead of each workstation running it's own version of the OS. This has obvious implications for central control and maintenance.

Features:

	Reduced maintenance costs
	Better control
	Enforcement of security policies
	Timely and central updates to the workstations.

We can help you sift through multiple desktop virtualization vendors and technologies (both commercial and open source) and evaluate and build a strategy that fits your needs.

We specialize in Xen and OpenVZ technologies and can help your business come up with an effective virtualization strategy.
