Virtualization allows operating systems and applications to run in virtual machines across physical hardware. This document discusses Microsoft's virtualization products from the datacenter to the desktop, including server, presentation, application, and desktop virtualization. It highlights benefits like accelerated provisioning, reduced costs, increased availability, and improved agility. It also provides examples of how organizations have benefited and reduced costs through server consolidation and eliminating application conflicts using virtualization.

5. What's new in the virtualization world

6. What's new with VMM

7. New Momentum with VMMPress recognizing the value of VMM!Tech Republic – “Microsoft strikes back with Virtual Machine Manager 2007”IDC Reports sums up the VMM storyBesides the additional feature development and heterogeneous support coming in VMM version 2, IDC expects the greatest value to come from the VMM integration with the broader System Center Suite, as this addresses pressing operational issues such as change, configuration, asset, and event management. These expanded capabilities enable IT organizations to attack VM sprawl from a life-cycle perspective.“Microsoft, for the first time in the company’s history, is positioning management as a centerpiece for differentiation and making a significant investment in management product execution and sales training for both direct (enterprise) and indirect small/midmarket channels prior to the release of the core technology (Viridian hypervisor)”
