VIRTUALIZATION DIVERSIFICATION


Server virtualization is a mature
technology – competition,
innovation, choice...

Over 70% of customers surveyed
are either already deploying a
dual virtualization vendor strategy,
or have concrete plans to do so

A MAJORITY OF ORGANIZATIONS ARE LOOKING FOR
ALTERNATIVES TO VMWARE
