Virtualization (Using VMWARE)

Virtualization is a combination of software and hardware engineering that creates Virtual Machines (VMs) - an abstraction of the computer hardware that allows a single machine to act as if it where many machines.

The future of enterprise IT management will be based on virtual computing. One of today's most rapidly evolving and widely deployed technologies is server virtualization. By implementing virtualized servers companies are saving huge cost of hardware, power consumption etc. The future lies in virtualization.
