Tags:
infrastructure management

Overview Server virtualization has become increasingly popular in the datacenter. As the virtualization phenomenon expands, organizations are discovering new ways to apply the technology -- and are faced with new challenges. SWsoft is aiming to address these challenges through its Virtuozzo product and its set of management tools.

This IDC Vendor Profile examines SWsoft Virtuozzo, an operating system virtualization platform for Windows and Linux. It discusses the benefits of OS virtualization, especially in terms of driving density and reducing OS sprawl, and provides insights from a Virtuozzo end-user.
