Disaster Recovery: VMware
VMware is an exciting and rapidly evolving software platform that allows you to consolidate multiple physical servers onto a single virtualized platform—this allows you to take full advantage of the unused processor power and disk storage in your environment. With VMware, as many as 30 virtual servers can run on a single Intel server which is easier to deploy and maintain. Plus multiple environments such as Exchange 2000, Exchange 2003, Linux, Windows 2000 and Windows 2003 can run together in harmony because VMware takes over the machine and provides dedicated space for each environment. VMware reduces server sprawl, slashes power consumption and minimizes space requirements which offers several benefits including the ability to move your servers into a hardened data center. When connected to a SAN, additional VMware modules offer powerful redundancy features such as VMotion and DRS which allow you to move virtual machines dynamically from one machine to another and speed server recovery times.
