Virtual meets reality
For your customers it’s no longer just a case of ‘will you be deploying virtualisation?’ the question now being asked of IT organisations is ‘where are you at with virtualisation?’
By July 2007 Forrester suggested 28% of companies had deployed at least one virtualisation project. CANALYS suggest that by 2011 73% of all servers will be virtualised in some form, with HP’s own research adding that 96% of enterprises see virtualisation impacting their backup strategy and 87% see virtual server backups as a key consideration in their data protection strategy.
There is no denying virtualisation is here and a real driver for channel business.
You already have access to all the products, skills and resources required to deliver profitable virtualisation projects. HP has brought together ProLiant G6 blades, Virtual Connect, Storage Disk arrays, HP Software and VMware as a product platform for simple, powerful virtualisation.
