As IT solutions become more complex, operational costs often continue to climb. It should come as no surprise then that organizations have been clamoring for ways to scale back the amount of time and money they spend maintaining their IT systems so they can instead ramp up efforts to better run their enterprise and bolster their bottom line.
Through its Dynamic Systems Initiative (DSI), a cross-company effort to address IT customers’ desire to be more cost-efficient, proactive and responsive to business requirements, Microsoft is attempting to address customer needs by making it easier for them to take advantage of the benefits of server virtualization technology. Organizations that virtualize computing environments can increase operational efficiency through server consolidation, application re-hosting, disaster recovery and software test and development.
