One can divide dedicated server in to virtual machines for consolidation, energy efficiency, testing and isolation of environment. This way of deployment is for powerful dedicated servers, not entry grade dedicated servers. Instead of using 3 dedicated servers for web server, database server, load balancer; we can use single bigger dedicated server and divide it or use many dedicated servers and consolidate with a cloud computing software. Previously we talked about hardware virtualization and operating system virtualization as two of the most used virtualization. In this article we are offering is a list of free and proprietary virtualization softwares for dedicated server consolidation.

 

Why Use Virtualization Softwares For Dedicated Server?
