Silicon.com’s Andrew Donaghue does a great job of talking up virtualisation in the face of a Gartner report claiming that adoption rates have yet to match the hype in this article. Real life case studies are the best way to answer such claims and we are working on a few of our own too, so watch this space.

One theme apparently slowing adoption down, according to Andrew’s interviews, is the increasing complexity surrounding virtualisation technology. Sure, VMWare can make virtualisation seem complicated since no single software solution can do the job.

For users choosing the hardware route, life is far simpler though. One Ultra High Availability Server does all … without losing transactions.
