Overview:
From the time computers became ubiquitous in the business world, IT managers have been trying to find ways to make them more efficient, secure and flexible.

In doing so, those engineers laid the groundwork for what today is known as virtualization — a method of dividing up a computer's resources into multiple environments to create a flexible, easy-touse, easy-to-manage, secure computing environment.
