3. The State of Virtualization
$9,997 per hour is the high-end revenue loss due
to down-time/degraded performance
50% of all IT organizations are running
more than one hypervisor
Low VM density increases Opex costs, thus
diminishing Capex savings
VM to admin ratio operational excellence of 1:150
can save businesses over $3000 per additional VM
Microsoft Exchange and Active Directory are two
of the most virtualized applications at 80%+
