The time has come to seriously consider joining the ranks of smart companies that are getting on-board with one of today's hottest IT trends—virtualization.

The concept of virtual IT environment is actually decades old. So, why all the buzz now? In today's cost and environmentally conscious business arena, virtualization enables IT departments to maximize their efficiencies and reap tremendous savings in significant areas such as hardware, energy and IT labor. There is no doubt that virtualization is back—along with another generation of thinking about technology that is truly transforming business.
