Tech Target

Enhancing server virtualization capabilities is a top three driver for server hardware purchases this year, according to a SearchDataCenter.com survey.

Almost half the 777 respondents said virtualization was important in deciding which servers to buy. Increasing compute capacity and normal server refresh cycles were the other top reasons for buying new servers.. In last year’s survey, a few respondents wrote in virtualization as a primary driver, but it wasn’t one of the choices.

I remain a fan of the Tech Target sites, I found this article when doing some research, its an interesting read and contains some great analysis, do check it out.
