[OPLINTECH] Virtualization

[Matt Hoffman]

Jim,

 

VMware here too.  The government pricing for their software is fairly
affordable.  We do both server and desktop virtualization, and have just
about all servers virtualized, including ADs, servers for IIS, Exchange,
Cassie, Websense, printing, SQL, etc.  We keep a couple physical ADs
(just because) and our backup server is physical as well.  We use iSCSI
SANs for the storage and multiple hosts in case of failure.  We used to
use Virtual Iron a few years back and that was great as well, though
Microsoft didn't support their products running on it, whereas they do
with VMware.

How many of you have virtualized your servers?  What applications or
services have you virtualized?  What applications do you suggest not
virtualizing?

 

Thank You,
