Benefits of Virtualization
Server Consolidation - Many servers are grossly under utilized. Virtual machines can be used to consolidate the services of many systems to a single hardware device, more effectively using the processor and other system resources.
Virtualization reduces the reliance on 3rd party vendors for hardware drivers, and eliminates many compatibility problems that may occur.
Tremendous savings on hardware expenses, system management, and administration of the data center.
