Server Virtualisation Overview
Server virtualisation allows multiple servers to run securely on a smaller number of physical hosts, instead of relying on a one‑server‑per‑machine model. Each virtual server runs independently with its own operating system and applications, while sharing underlying hardware resources.
Traditionally, physical servers are underused, expensive to maintain, and represent a single point of failure. Virtualisation removes these limitations by separating the server from the hardware it runs on.
Our server virtualisation service helps businesses improve reliability, reduce costs, and simplify server management, while creating a flexible platform that can grow with the business
