Citrix XenServer
Deliver the Dynamic Datacenter
Citrix XenServer, a member of the Citrix Delivery Center product family, is the
simplest and most effective way to virtualize servers and deliver dynamic data centers
that are responsive to the ever-changing demands of business. Using Citrix XenServer,
virtual server software companies can deploy high-performance virtual machines rapidly
and easily, and manage them and their related storage and networking resources from
a single easy-to-use management console. The powerful provisioning capabilities
now available in Citrix XenServer virtualization software makes it the only platform
than can integrate the deployment and management of virtual and physical servers
into a unified dynamic virtualized infrastructure - a flexible aggregated pool of
computing and storage resources.
Realizing the Benefits of Server Virtualization
Virtualization Increases Server Utilization
The ability to easily move multiple virtual servers onto a single physical machine—and
then migrate those virtual servers whenever additional resources are needed—allows
for a radical reduction in the total number of servers needed by your organization.
Without the benefit of virtualization the average server only has a utilization
rate of 15%. This provides a large window of opportunity.
Virtualization Reduces IT Costs
Increased server utilization and consolidation provides savings from:
» Lower server, SAN, network and infrastructure costs
» Reduced management overhead
» Lower power, real-estate and deployment costs
Virtualization Increases Operational Agility
The ability to instantly provision new pre-packaged virtual servers onto a virtualized
infrastructure gets new applications up and running in the data center in minutes,
instead of weeks or months. Plus, being able to quickly move virtual servers from
one machine to another — or re-start a failed server — dramatically improves resilience
to failures.
Citrix XenServer Virtualization Unleashes These Benefits
Only Citrix XenServer virtualization solutions have the speed, security, and cost
advantages to bring the promise of virtualization to realization in a production
environment. Citrix, the home of the open source Xen™ hypervisor, provides a variety
of Xen virtualization solutions.
