What is Virtualisation?
Virtualisation separates software applications from the underlying hardware enabling servers to run multiple services in isolation from another and allowing organisations to get more value from their hardware investments. In addition to energy savings and lower capital expenses, server virtualisation delivers higher availability of resources and improved disaster recovery processes. Virtual desktops extend the benefits of server virtualisation to the desktop, giving organisations centralised control over their most resource-intensive assets, lowering management overheads, improving data security and providing remote access.
