The document discusses how Fusion-io products provide simple math benefits for virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI), server virtualization, databases, and shared storage. For each application, Fusion-io allows for more resources per server, lower costs, and better utilization of storage area networks (SANs) through faster performance, greater density of virtual machines and desktops, and reduced storage queues and failover times.
