Change is inevitable almost in every industry; And if the change is for good, the ratio of transition will be relatively high. IT admins and SMBs having physical data centers have witnessed a similar change in recent times in the name of virtualization. The greater good it provided, resulted in many businesses transitioning their storage and servers from physical to virtual environments.
At this point of time, it is essential to learn what made this transition possible. The top 5 reasons are listed below:
Easy to construct:
Most SMBs and startups have time constraints and may not be able to invest their limited energy in constructing a server infrastructure. Virtualization is a true saviour in such scenarios. What could take months to design and develop in real time can be made available in a matter of hours, thanks to virtualization.
Cut costs of investment:
The cost requirements for purchasing server hardware and software licenses can be prohibitive for SMBs and IT administrators on a lean budget. Whereas in virtualization, creation of multiple copies of a VM will not only cut costs on hardware purchase but save on software licenses required.
Easy to maintain:
The maintenance of a physical server requires additional resources, attention and manpower, all of which translate into more expenses. But in the case of virtualization, the maintenance phase demands a lot less and does not require nearly as much time or people, leading to significant cost savings in the long run.
Migration never been this simple:
Migration of VMs on virtual environments is a piece of cake compared to physical migrations which can be a pain at times to accomplish.
