Virtulization

“Virtualization is about the delivery of experience without reliance on the physical resource. A flight simulator, for example, delivers the experience of the flight to trainee pilots without the need of them to physically flying a plane. Application virtualization provides the experience of a desk application to user without the need for it to physically sit on their PC, laptop, PDA or other personal device. With the applications housed on a central server, only a virtual interface is sent over the network to the user”. Chris Mayers Chief Security architect at Citrix *

Over the next few years, organization will move towards the automation of their IT Management. Businesses will no longer need to invest in installing applications on per device (PC, Laptop, PDAs etc) basis, rather then centralizing applications for better IT management, reduce cost and over heads and provide both office based and remote workers the flexibility to use applications on demand basis.
