4. Objectives
5/21/2018 4
• To reduce hardware cost.
• To ensure reducing downtime.
• Easier to maintain virtual PC’s in one server.
• Hardware resource utilization using advanced virtual environment with virtual
networking.
• To select, install and setup open source virtualization and operating system
virtualization on commodity hardware.

5. Traditional Server Concept
5/21/2018 5
• Servers are often referred to by their function i.e. the Exchange server, the SQL
server, the File server etc.
• If the File server fills up or the Exchange server becomes overtaxed, then the
System Administrators must add in a new server.
• Unless there are multiple servers, if a service experiences a hardware failure,
then the service is down.

6. Virtual Server Concept

• One host typically house many virtual servers (virtual machines or VMs).

7. Virtual Server Concept
5/21/2018 7
• A virtual server can be serviced by one or more hosts e.g. storage, services etc.
• Virtual servers can still be referred by their functions i.e. email server, database
server etc.
• If the environment is built correctly, virtual servers will not be affected by the loss
of a host.
• Hosts may be removed and introduced to accommodate maintenance.

10. Citrix Xen is a free hypervisor, high performance clouds.
 Monitors average CPU and memory utilization across all active hosts in the pool
 Monitors change in a pool and shared storage configuration.
 Monitors VM migrations.
 Easily configure Xen desktop and Xen app virtualization.

30. Power Savings
5/21/2018 30
You can significantly reduce your power cost by using virtual environment.
How ?

32. Future work
5/21/2018 32
 Virtualized desktop environment will be increased.
 Also deploying server virtualization, network virtualization,
storage virtualization and application virtualization.
 Data security issues will be fixed easily by storing the data
on the virtual servers.

33. Conclusion
5/21/2018 33
To sum up, virtualization has many benefits to provide
engineering. It is a form of abstraction used to simplify
the use of a computer's resources. Through this abstraction, resources become
represented into simpler or different forms.
The benefits of using virtualization include portability, security, performance and
reliability.
Productivity of the organization will be increased.
