To meet the growing demands of technology environments, Hewlett-Packard announced several new products, services and solutions to enable customers to realize the full potential and benefits of their virtualisation projects. These new offerings are aimed at business needs that span from desktops to data centres.

Virtualisation can provide several benefits, including increased business agility, lowered costs and reduced risk of downtime. When properly implemented, virtualisation becomes a strategic enabler for data centre transformation.

Recent global research conducted on behalf of HP has revealed that while 86 percent of technology decision makers have implemented virtualisation projects, the vast majority of respondents expect to have virtualised just 25 percent of their technology environments by 2010. While many of those surveyed anticipate eventually reaching 75 percent virtualisation of their total environments, only one-third of these technology implementers recognize virtualisation as a valuable business tool. Two thirds of implementers relegate virtualisation to the role of technology enabler. .
