Abstract :
To dramatically improve the efficiency, resources and applications availability within the institution, now, the step that must be made it seems very small and achievable through virtualization. The reduction of the capital and operational costs it will be made by virtualizing the IT infrastructure in a “virtual” infrastructure, obtaining in the same time an increase of the efficiency, utilization and flexibility of the existent assets in the system. The virtualization of IT infrastructure provides resources, applications even servers when and where they are needed. Using the power of virtualization to manage better the IT capacity, we increase the quality of services and efficiency of the IT processes. Thus, considering the benefits and barriers encountered with an automated virtualized platform, we respond more quickly to the market dynamics and more efficient then ever, but let´s not forget, event the virtual system can be damaged or operate under the optimal parameters.
