This white paper presents a discussion of virtualization, a cornerstone of HP's approach to helping customers achieve business and IT synchronization on their journey to becoming a more Adaptive Enterprise. Virtualization is an approach to IT that pools and shares resources so utilization is optimized and supply automatically meets demand. Traditional IT environments are often silos where both technology and human resources are aligned around an application or business function. With a virtualized infrastructure, people, processes and technology are focused on meeting service levels, capacity is allocated dynamically, resources are optimized, and the entire infrastructure is simplified and flexible.
