Computer hardware was originally designed to run a single operating system and a single application, leaving most machines vastly under utilized. Virtualization lets you run multiple virtual machines on a single physical machine, with each virtual machine sharing the resources of that

 one physical computer across multiple environments. Different virtual machines can run different operating systems and multiple applications on the same physical computer.

The average company could be using their technology inefficiently. In fact, the typical business server has a utilization rate of between 5% and 15%. This means that up to 95% of your server’s computing power is being wasted. With virtualization services, you can fix this deficit. A virtual server is more efficient and does not force you to dedicate space, money, or time to it. This is done through the use of hypervisor technology. The hypervisor is a piece of software that shares the resources of a single server equally, allowing that server to run many separate virtual machines on it. This is what allows you to get high-degrees of efficiency and consolidate many of your organization’s computing processes.

Virtualizing your IT infrastructure lets you reduce IT costs while increasing the efficiency, utilization, and flexibility of your existing assets. Globally, companies of every size benefit from virtualization. Thousands of organizations—including all of the Fortune 100—use virtualization solutions.
