ABSTRACT:
Virtualization creates many difficulties, almost by definition. The diversity of virtualization technologies, multitude of virtualization platforms (Windows, UNIX, Linux, and even mainframe environments), and array of vendors - plus the fact that these different platforms and vendor technologies are often deployed simultaneously - raises significant issues around people, process, and technology. How can these issues be overcome? This white paper looks at how pairing IT process automation with virtualization can help IT:
- Reduce IT operations costs
- Avoid VM sprawl
- Improve response times and meet SLAs
- Free up resources for strategic projects
- And more
