The Business Case for Virtualizing Infrastructure

Overview Multiple waves of technology have left most organizations with IT infrastructure that is complex, inflexible, and expensive to run. People, devices and applications are tightly coupled making it difficult to rollout new applications or support new work patterns. IT organizations have to manage a vast array of applications, based on divergent technologies, and run thousands of PCs and servers, each with its own operating requirements and idiosyncrasies. This paper outlines the business case for virtualizing infrastructure using Propero's workSpace virtualization platform.
