Virtualization addresses IT’s most pressing challenge: the infrastructure sprawl that compels IT departments to channel 70 percent of their budget into maintenance, leaving scant resources for business-building innovation. The difficulty stems from the architecture of today’s x86 computers: they’re designed to run just one operating system (OS) and application at a time. As a result, even small data centers must deploy many servers, each operating at just 5–15 percent of capacity—highly inefficient by any standard.

The pandemic put strong pressures on organizations to modernize their infrastructure. The sudden rush of remote workers using virtual desktop infrastructure has resulted in surges and strains within current IT infrastructure. Organizations then were faced with a difficult choice: continue operations with slow, and at times insufficient capacity to support its workers, or upgrade their IT infrastructure. Upgrading IT infrastructure provides its own challenges: on-prem upgrades are an expensive endeavor and a considerable effort must be put into provisioning the right amount of hardware. Under-provisioning could potentially result in disruptions to operations and over-provisioning would result in wasted expenses. The other option is migrating to the cloud, which although does allow for elasticity with provisioning, does have challenges in the massive, timeand resource-intensive process of replacing legacy systems with cloud-based SaaS enterprise software.

Technology-driven organizations have the lead in embracing new technology trends for their digital transformation initiatives. The COVID-19 pandemic introduced unprecedented challenges in terms of disrupted operations, changed delivery models, and the urgent need to support remote work for enterprises in all industries. Technology companies were best able to adjust to the new circumstances, since most were already well into their digital transformation journey. The pandemic further emphasized the need to accelerate digital maturity and align IT investments with changing business needs. Organizations are thus prioritizing solutions that enable IT resource optimization; operational efficiency and customer experience improvement; as well as support an increasingly distributed workforce.
