A combination of forces — including the quest for greater energy efficiency in the data center — is spurring a surge in adoption of virtualization and commodity hardware on Wall Street. Most large firms have several virtualization projects on the drawing board, and exhibitors at the SIFMA Technology Management Conference this week are all over the trend.
