		IBM Virtualization for a dynamic infrastructure Virtualization is a key building block of a dynamic infrastructure. By making the infrastructure much more flexible, virtualization can enable IT resources to be allocated faster, more cost effectively and more dynamically - and help you respond to the challenges of changing demand levels and new business requirements. To achieve the best outcome, organizations are virtualizing at all layers of the architecture, from servers to desktops, storage, networks, and applications - while also adopting new methods of automation and service management -- to help reduce cost, improve service and manage risk. Reduce cost Virtualization is helping organizations achieve breakthrough productivity gains and contain operational cost and complexity. Improve Service With virtualization, applications can be decoupled from hardware -- greatly reducing the time needed to deploy new services from weeks to hours or even minutes. Manage risk Virtualization is the foundation on which organizations can build high availability and disaster recovery infrastructures with optimal system, network and application performance.
