Any data center with a virtualized environment has a real need for effective capacity management. This article discusses the reasons why capacity management is critical to achieving the benefits of server virtualization and outlines the three key requirements to consider when evaluating capacity management systems.

With such an architecture, utilization can increase from as low as 10% for dedicated servers to 60% or more for virtualized servers. The enhanced resource efficiencies make it ...

Virtualization technologies have changed the ground rules on monitoring and managing your IT services. Most of us in the IT operations world tend to focus on the nuts and bolts of the infrastructure - our key concerns are: How hot are my Linux servers? How many IOPS are happening to the disks? Is Active Directory working? Is DNS working, etc.? On the other hand, end users are focused on the business services that they are accessing. After all, that's what they see and care about to get their job

It wasn’t all that long ago that virtualization was viewed as cutting edge technology that was useful for development and testing but not for real production implementations. But the advent of hypervisor based virtualization technologies like VMware’s ESX Server and Microsoft’s Hyper-V Server radically changed that perception. These technologies moved the support of the virtualization layer out of the operating system and put it directly on the system hardware, vastly improving the performance a

Nashua, NH-based Travis Vigil is executive director, Dell Storage. The concept of introducing virtualization into corporate data centers has moved well past the trial phase over the past few years into one of wide acceptance today.

Ever since human beings landed on the moon, the state of technology in government appeared to be on a downward slope. Never mind that it was really the U.S. Government that facilitated the original Internet; in public sector offices, the state of computing started lagging behind the private sector ever since IBM mass-produced the microcomputer. That slope may have bottomed out two years ago ...

En route to the federal government’s ambitious data center consolidation plans, the move toward virtualizing servers is expected to double by 2015. And while government IT professionals are also eyeing desktop virtualization, servers are the top priority. Agencies anticipate ratcheting up from 37 percent of workloads being virtualized to 63 percent, which, if it happens as planned, holds potential to grow government savings as much as $23.6 billion, according to a report published Monday by Meri
