Virtualization has become a key requirement for the enterprise. This result from an urgent need to focus on reduced Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) for enterprise computing infrastructure. In spite of - or indeed because of - the widespread adoption of relatively cheap, industry standard x86-based servers, enterprises have seen costs and complexity escalate rapidly. Virtualization also offers many as yet unrealized benefits - including development, staging and testing, dynamic provisioning, reduced patching, no-downtime maintenance, high availability and load balancing. Further, virtualization opens the door for enterprises to realize the promise of utility computing.
