Virtualisation

Why virtualisation ?

Virtualization allows enterprises to reduce IT costs, increase efficiency of their infrastructure by maximizing utilization of servers.

Economy and consolidation of server : Managing the server farm is more dynamic with virtualization, which offers the possibility of consolidating multiple servers on a single machine. Virtualization allows the release of an application schema = server. This reduces the number of servers needed and reduces your costs.

Increased availability of applications : You eliminate the planned downtime and restore service quickly in case of unscheduled interruptions.

Flexibility and Optimisation : Mixing applications within a single server offers great flexibility : to install a new server, simply specify a different virtual server and install the appropriate application. Virtualization allows administrators to spend less time on repetitive tasks such as monitoring, maintenance.
