Traditional Vs Virtual Architecture
»
»
Traditional Architecture involves having dedicated
Physical Server that is a piece of hardware
configured to perform the tasks of your business.
»
»
Virtual Architecture gives flexibility to its hardware
by providing performance, efficiency and
management being more easier.
Backup & Recovery
Flexibility to take Full backups as well as snapshots of
virtual machines.
Virtual machines can be relocated from one
infrastructure to another and redeployed easier and
faster.
Snapshot dramatically cuts the downtime since firing a
VM is much easier than booting a new OS instance.

available in the underlying hardware and present them
to the virtual machines that are running on top of this.
