Beyond the server, vendors are now touting products for virtualizing any and every layer of the infrastructure: Network, storage, desktop, application, database, user interface - even security and mobility. This technology explosion makes sense. Although enterprises gain incremental benefits from applying virtualization in one area, they gain much more by using it across every tier of the IT infrastructure.
