VMware Drives 'Business Infrastructure Virtualisation' In India

Virtualisation solution provider VMware has announced new initiatives around its core products – VMware View, the VMware vCenter Product Family, and VMware vSphere – to drive ‘business infrastructure virtualisation’ adoption in India. The aim is to enable Indian organisations and their IT departments to shift their primary focus from maintenance to enhancing efficiency and innovation.

“Most businesses today equate virtualisation with capital expenditure savings that result from server consolidation,” said T Srinivasan, Managing Director, VMware India & SAARC. “With a broader virtualisation strategy, as defined by business infrastructure virtualisation, Indian businesses can achieve even more, through savings from financial, human and the earth’s energy. We are offering our customers one platform for all of their IT and virtualisation needs, from deployment to management and support”.
