Accelerate Software Development, Testing and Deployment With the VMware Virtualization Platform

Overview For many years, VMware Workstation has remained the preferred desktop virtualization solution for software developers and testers worldwide, since it offers the immediate benefits of desktop consolidation along with functionality designed specifically to optimize the development process. In conjunction with VMware's popular desktop product, many software development teams also deploy VMware Server and ESX Server in their labs to optimize server-based resources and boost team productivity. Gaining the best of both worlds, and increasing number of development teams within enterprises and ISVs (Independent Software Vendors) are taking advantage of the VMware Technology Network (VMTN). This paper explains how VMware software helps software development, test and IT professionals to accelerate projects by increasing productivity; reduces operational, environmental, hardware and support costs; and improves software quality.
