(1). EMC Corporation, it is now commonly known as, is an information (hardware and software) technology company founded in in 1979 by Richard Egan and Roger Marino (Mellor). The original idea behind the founding of EMC, whose name was created by taking the first initial of the company’s founders, namely “E” and “M” and at attaching it to the first initial of corporation, was to provide increased memory capacity for the mini-computers of the first information technology revolution of the 1980s by supplying customers and manufactures with a proprietary version of a memory card (Mellor). As their business ...

Virtualization Software

Introduction Nowadays, many companies turn to virtualization software (hypervisors) to emulate physical PCs and use virtual machines installed on a single physical platform. Such virtualization software can become a great advantage for any company, and this software can help to cut costs and improve various business processes. Thus, the Hertz Corporation, a world-known car rental company, should consider using virtualization software in its core business activities. There are many types of virtualization software designed and developed by different companies, and all software brands have their pros and cons that should be taken into close consideration when choosing an appropriate ...

Executive Summary

A contemporary workplace without at least minimal tech infrastructure, such as PCs and laptops connected to a corporate Ethernet is hardly imaginable nowadays. At the same time, the practice demonstrates that the demands of technological modernity are continually evolving, and for many companies staying in line with the developments of technology is either organizationally impossible or financially unaffordable. Thus, statistically 44.59% of all global PC and laptop users still use Windows 7 and 7.65% have Windows XP installed, although Microsoft stopped maintaining the both operating system (VMWare, 2015). Because advanced operating systems require renewal of a corporate subscription and ...

Virtualization

Introduction This report aims at exploring the differences between hypervisor based and container-based virtualization technologies. In the report, the differences to be explored will touch on the implementations, the applications, the advantages and disadvantages of either technology. The report will also look at the different applications that are using the technologies.

Virtualizations: Virtualization is the practice of creation virtual resource, i.e., servers, storage devices, networks or even operating system to enable execution of applications that require a different execution environment. Virtualization is meant to increase IT agility, scalability and flexibility through faster deployment, increased performance and greater availability leading ...

Introduction

Dittner & Rule (2011) describe virtualization as a methodology or framework of dividing the computer hardware’s resources into several execution environments, by utilizing the concepts or technologies, for example, complete or partial machine simulation, software and hardware partitioning, and time-sharing, among others. Virtualization is, thus, an abstraction of the resources of a computer hardware. As a software technology, virtualization facilitates the running of several operating systems on the similar server simultaneously (Cartwright, Mills, Langone, & Leibovici, 2014). In the contemporary information technology, there exist different forms of virtualization. The present paper delves into two of these forms, namely, server virtualization ...
