windows server 2008

Overview Virtualization in an IT environment is essentially the isolation of one computing resource from others. By separating the different layers in the logic stack, greater flexibility and simplified change management is enabled - there is no need to configure each element for them to all work together. The attendee of this webcast will learn how virtualization can help to consolidate servers, maximize uptime, recover from disruptive events, and reduce the application-to-application conflicts that can cause compatibility problems in the IT environment.
