Virtualization has
become popular because of the developments in cloud computing. There has been
increasing adoption of web-based virtual environments by end-users to reduce
costs and increase efficiency and security. Virtualization services include the
creation of a virtual version of either a server, an operating system, a
storage device, or network resources. Virtualization services enable an
organization to use existing servers and devices to run multiple resources
using various applications without degrading performance. The benefits of
virtualization are especially evident in terms of efficiency. Virtualization
allows IT managers, data center services managers, and IT administrators to
accomplish more tasks as it enables them to supervise and manage fewer servers
through online virtual server consolidation.
