 Virtualization
current status

• currently exists lot of hardware for

servers
• difficult to manage, expensive
service, zero flexibility
• in case of failure, complete installation
needed and data restore – time
consuming
• performance isolated for separate use
 Virtualization
starting step

Introduce virtual center

WHY?
•hardware independent
installations
• server installation fully
transferable
• starting of virtual server is a
question of seconds or minutes
compared to restore of physical
server taking hours
• load distributed inside virtual
center

• create virtual images of server farm

• lower the time of outage when problem occures
• created environment for safe testing
• installation of “hardware” independent servers
• performance is distributed according need
• server in virtual environment is “transferable”
• increased availability

how to make profit from virtualization

• possibility to create any server

during very short time
• possibility to send image to
different location and to
reconstruct server there
• changes could be applied and
Virtual image
are reversible
• after starting server is enough
to actualize data from tape
• all activities are transparent for
users
• need to reconstruct any
environment is only backup tape
and available hardware

Virtual image

Running in
virtual

• virtualization creates border not dividing but putting together every source
needed by use of virtual image and offers functionality restricted only by
physical hardware
• could be used not only in case of failure, but also as additional resource
to grant that business is not endangered by any means

perform activities will make possible to let “born” any server on

virtually any location when sharing data will be also implemented,
because of independency of virtual server on dedicated hardware
