During the past decade, companies acquired numerous servers from various vendors and created sprawling server farms. As companies now realise the costs associated with maintaining and managing these servers, virtualisation has become a growing trend in the industry, with many companies taking advantage of the technology to optimise their IT infrastructure.

A key focus of virtualisation may be cost savings, but it encompasses so much more, including an evaluation of the entire server environment for efficiency, full optimisation of the IT infrastructure and the consideration of the full processing and storage needs of an enterprise. Tikiri will cover the development of Virtualisation over recent years, describe the future and what is driving the industry to embrace the technology.
