Virtual System Rollouts Face Several Challenges
Thursday, November 20, 2008
Leading global advisory and consulting firm cites performance bottlenecks as top challenge when deploying virtual systems
CLEAR LAKE, Iowa, Nov. 20 /PRNewswire/ -- TeamQuest Corporation, the
global leader in IT Service Optimization (ITSO) software, announced that a
virtualization survey found that Capacity Management software alleviates the
challenges associated with managing virtual systems.
The survey, commissioned by TeamQuest, also takes a closer look at tools
used to manage virtual systems, how soon organizations will invest in these
tools and the highest priority for investing in IT Service Optimization tools.

"IT managers understand the positive impact Capacity Management practices
can have on virtualized environments," says Director of Product Management
Scott Adams. "The ability to accurately predict, plan and manage capacity and
performance is essential to realizing the full benefit of virtualized
systems."
Survey results show that organizations realize that virtualization --
without proper planning, management and service optimization capabilities --
leads to performance headaches that limit the potential for real business
advantage.
For example, nearly 40 percent of enterprise respondents experienced with
virtual systems cited bottlenecks that impact performance as one of their top
three challenges in deploying virtual systems.
More than a third of large enterprises cited maintaining appropriate
security levels, properly sizing virtual machines, and ensuring that they can
handle expected and unexpected workloads as common challenges.
Organizations using TeamQuest software to manage virtual systems enjoy the
ability to:
-- Analyze the utilization of different resources
-- Monitor the hypervisor
-- Monitor the activities within each individual guest or virtual server
-- Understand how the virtual systems are behaving relative to each other
and the hypervisor
-- Comprehend the contention among virtual machines for shared resources
"IT leaders are searching for tools that can optimize their virtualized
environments and deliver ongoing IT and business benefits essential for the
future success of their organizations," says Ovum Research Director John
Madden. "Virtualization will play an integral role as the data center evolves
into a dynamic piece of the business."
