Evolution of Virtualization Strategies

Virtualization Advantages● Virtualization is the foundation on which cloud infrastructure is built.● provide secure, isolated sandboxes for running untrusted applications.● Reliability and Availability, – A software failure in one VM does not affect other VMs.● Cost, – Server consolidation can bring cost reductions from hardware economies of

scale, personnel cost reductions, floor space, and software licenses. - Typical savings: 29% to 64%.● Load Balancing,– The state of a VM is completely encapsulated in the VMM: easy to migrate VMs to

other platforms to improve performance.
