The number of installed server VMs and containers has nearly

doubled in the past year as competition improves, virtualization

adoption expands, the midmarket heats up, desktop virtualization

drives more workloads to servers and workloads are deployed by

cloud computing providers.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

As of mid-2011, at least 40% of x86 architecture workloads have been virtualized on servers;

furthermore, the installed base is expected to grow five-fold from 2010 through 2015 (as

both the number of workloads in the marketplace grow and as penetration grows to more

than 75%). A rapidly growing number of midmarket enterprises are virtualizing for the first

time, and have several strong alternatives from which to choose. Virtual machine (VM) and

operating system (OS) software container technologies are being used as the foundational

elements for infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) cloud computing offerings and for private

cloud deployments. x86 server virtualization infrastructure is not a commodi
