Server consolidation through VMware Vpshere and Vmware Vcenter virtualization

Description

Server virtualization reduces the number of physical servers in the Datacenter since we can have several virtual servers in the same physical server.

VMware Vsphere 5 and VMware Center have been used. With VMware Vcenter, all physical servers and their virtual machines can be accessed from a centralized console.

The growing power of servers and virtualization have made it possible to consolidate several servers, with all their services, on physical servers. This technique reduces the number of physical servers in the datacenter, with all the advantages that this entails: lower infrastructure costs, fewer breakdowns, lower energy costs and better use of resources.
