Enterprise Java Virtualization - Understanding the TCO Implications: An Executive Brief

Tags:
java

Overview There are a number of possible deployment models for running enterprise Java applications on hypervisor-based virtualization platforms such as VMware's Virtual Infrastructure. Which one the user chooses can have a very significant impact on the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) for those applications. Simply running a "Standard" software stack inside a virtual machine will usually not achieve the full potential TCO savings. A better approach is to take advantage of innovative new technologies that allow enterprise Java applications to run directly inside a virtual machine without a traditional Operating System (OS). This can result in dramatic reductions in the costs associated with maintaining the software infrastructure for enterprise applications.
