Hardware Virtualization and American Businesses

Paper Summary:

This paper examines the positive effects of hardware virtualization upon American businesses. Specifically, the paper concludes that the available literature is fairly unanimous in asserting that virtual hardware cuts down on server redundancy, gives organizations greater operational flexibility as it pertains to their operating systems, and ultimately saves businesses money. This paper pursues a qualitative rather than a quantitative analysis of the topic insofar as there is very little available empirical data present in the literature (at least at this time). The paper also finishes with a look at areas which should be explored in future research.

From the Paper:

"Hardware virtualization has quickly emerged over the last three to four years as a major development in software technology. The following paper will explore this phenomenon by examining the qualitative data which exists on this subject at the moment. More particularly, this study is a qualitative rather than empirical assessment of the available literature and, as such, it explores the general ideas and views of business analysts, business leaders and technicians who will be - or already are - using the technology on a daily basis."
