Nemertes Research has launched a groundbreaking project that provides in-depth analysis of Server & Desktop Virtualization Research . The project includes the following components:

Market Analysis

In this piece of the project, Nemertes’ team of expert analysts will define critical product and service categories in the virtualization market, the key trends and conditions within each, and will analyze key vendors and their products and positioning.

The Market Analysis covers the following market segments:

• Security
• Desktop and Server Platforms
• Management

If you would like to be included in this Market Analysis, please contact John Burke at john.burke@nemertes.com.

Benchmark

Nemertes built its reputation on its one-of-a-kind benchmarking.
Senior analysts will interview 100-150 IT executives, and provide data,
analysis, and insight on best practices for Server & Desktop Virtualization. By thoroughly analyzing real deployments, Nemertes will uncover::

• What servers and services, and whose desktops, are being virtualized first, and why?
• The reasons for not virtualizing particular services, servers, or desktops.
• How to build a business case for moving to virtualized servers and/or desktops.
• The criteria for selecting the right virtualization platform.
• How does the IT organization change to reflect a virtualized infrastructure?
• How organizations build a secure and manageable virtual infrastructure.
