A virtual server is a server that shares hardware and software resources with other operating systems (OS) in contrast to dedicated physical servers. Server virtualisation is a critical component of the modern IT data centre.
There are several inherent advantages to server virtualisation, including:
Streamlined and efficient management and deployment of business resources (e.g., virtual desktops)

Although efficiency gains and cost reduction realized from virtualised environments can provide significant infrastructure savings, many organisations seeking to expand their usage of virtualisation encounter hardware design challenges that create complexities and increase costs.
An efficient virtualised environment blends servers, networking, storage, and backup. Any one bottleneck can drive inefficiency across other components, and those inefficiencies can be difficult to diagnose. Integrating solid-state storage, with its greater speed, reliability, and flexibility, can go a long way toward ensuring that virtualisation can scale as needed, and in a cost-effective manner.
Pure Storage® solutions are particularly well-suited to virtualised server environments. Pure products boast native NVMe performance, the power to virtualise and consolidate every workload, and the modularity to grow with your business. When combined with Evergreen™ Storage, Pure Storage solutions can provide all-flash speed, scale, and reliability for a decade or more.
