Virtualization allows multiple virtual machines, with heterogeneous operating systems, to run side by side on the same physical computer.

Whether you've already deployed virtualization or are just starting to consider it, experts will explain which servers you can virtualize and offer advice on how to effectively set and implement your virtualization strategy. They'll show you how to optimize, monitor and manage a virtual environment.

Just a few of the benefits of virtualization include:

• Reclaim space in the data centre / server room
• Reduce your power / running costs
• Increase efficiency of hardware use
• Migration
