Virtualization
in Server Support and Server Management
Today, Cloud server support and cloud
server management are very highly discussing topics in the organizations. They
form the backbone of running and supporting hundreds of critical corporate
applications for the organization to function easily and efficiently.
One of the key trends over the
last few years has been the ever increasing role of Virtualization in cloud
computing services. Virtualization (According to Wikipedia "Virtualization
is the creation of a virtual (rather than actual) version of something in the
area of computing, such as an operating system, a server, a storage device or
network resources. Virtualization can be viewed as part of an overall trend in
enterprise IT that includes autonomic computing, a scenario in which the IT
environment will be able to manage itself based on perceived activity, and utility
computing, in which computer processing power is seen as a utility that clients
can pay for only as needed. The usual goal of Virtualization is to centralize
administrative tasks while improving scalability and workloads.")
It has been a game changer in the server support and cloud management. It has made
management of data in cloud computing companies much easier to maintain,
monitor, and backup. It has significantly reduced the needs for power and
space, while reducing carbon footprint and overall resources. Utilization of
computing resources has increased many folds as Virtualization allows the
flexibility and elasticity for virtual machines to be deployed, configured, and
changed on-demand, and the same physical servers can support multi-function and
multiple applications.
Top cloud computing companies have
been largely supported by Virtualization as all cloud computing providers have
large implementations of Virtualization at their data centers. The huge amount
of value of shared computing has been facilitated via this method.
Backup and disaster recovery for
IT Systems has become significantly easier. Whether your business is small or
medium-scale, Virtualization is the perfect solution for all applications. With
this only a single person is able to handle the issues with more than one
server. The virtual servers are playing a tremendous role in this sector of
server support.
