More than any other technology, virtualization has the opportunity to single-handedly change how IT infrastructures and operations are managed. AMD is committed to driving the adoption of this exciting new technology by providing the underlying foundation for achieving near-native application performance and productive user experience.
In today’s IT environments virtualization allows for:
- Consolidation and reduced power and cooling costs
- Dynamic capacity management
- Rapid server provisioning
- Streamlined software development,
- Improved response to changing business requirements and enhanced business continuity
As a strategic technology, virtualization has the potential to significantly reduce IT costs and transform the business initiatives of an organization by allowing multiple operating systems and applications to run simultaneously on the same server. By adopting a virtualized environment IT experiences simpler deployment and an elegant, scalable architecture and a more efficient use of computing resources, while users benefit from the transparent access to all software.
