Server virtualization is one of the most significant technology trends in IT environments today, and a key enabler of the next generation virtualized data center. Server virtualization relies on hypervisors to provide the abstraction layer between the operating systems and the physical hardware, allowing IT administrators the ability to consolidate server capacity, increase hardware utilization, and optimize their infrastructure all while improving service levels and network security.

With Microsoft® WS 2008 Hyper-V, server virtualization becomes truly pervasive, reaching all segments of the IT market, heightening the need for innovative, cost-effective storage solutions that can simplify SAN deployments and provide enterprise reliability. The Dell EqualLogic™ PS Series can provide a fully virtualized storage infrastructure that delivers high availability, resiliency, flexibility, and scalability that is simple and cost-effective to deploy, manage and grow.
