Virtualization is rapidly becoming one of the most disruptive IT trends this decade. Organizations of all sizes are seeing cost savings and efficiencies by implementing virtualization technologies. In fact, Gartner analysts predict that 40% of midsize businesses will reduce their server population by at least 20 percent through virtualization this year alone.*

While all the rage today, the concepts behind virtualizing operating systems date back more than 40 years to the early IBM mainframe days when the creation and management of virtual machines was called “creating pseudo machines.” Companies like VMware, Citrix, and now Oracle and Sun are bringing virtualization to the platforms most of us rely on, making the technology available to large and small alike.

Despite the benefits virtualization provides, it does add an additional layer of management, increasing the complexity within an organization’s IT operations. It’s also clear the physical machine isn’t going away and these need to be managed in conjunction with virtual machines. So what is the best way to manage both virtualized and physical machines efficiently?

The KBOXTM Family of Systems Management Appliances offers integrated management of virtual and physical machines from an easy-to-use, comprehensive and affordable appliance. A recently released a new whitepaper, “Best Practices in Virtualization: Integrated Management,” examines the value of virtualization, the challenges of managing mixed environments, and highlights a case study of a company moving to integrated management of both virtualized and physical machines.
