A Unified Approach to Workload Lifecycle Management
Workload Profiling and Portability Transforms Data Center Operations
By helping to dissolve the bonds between software and hardware, virtualization encourages organizations to see the data center in a different way – not as a heterogeneous mix of different servers, operating systems, applications and data, but as a set of portable workload units. At the most basic level, a workload encapsulates the data, applications and operating systems that reside on a physical or virtual host. The ability to profile, move, copy, protect and replicate these aggregated workload units between physical and virtual hosts is rapidly emerging as a key enabler for operational and business success. Find out how new workload profiling and portability technologies are helping organizations achieve new operational efficiencies and cost savings, and why your organization should consider adopting a unified approach to managing workloads in the data center.
