What is virtualization?
Everyone is talking about Virtualisation these days, but what does it actually mean? Virtualisation is a revolutionary technology that can be defined as the creation of a virtual representation of something physical, such as an operating system, a server, a storage device or network resources. For example, a virtualised Windows 2003 server runs on a virtualised representation of a physical Windows 2003 server. Virtualisation removes the direct dependency of the virtualised device on physical hardware. This independence of the application/service from the hardware provides huge benefits.
