Gartner | Application Virtualization

Gartner | Application Virtualization

"According to Gartner, who predicts that “20 percent of businesses will own no IT assets by 2012.” The research firm says three major factors will contribute to this phenomenon: virtualization, cloud computing and employees running personal devices on corporate networks.

“...20 percent of businesses haven’t virtualized, they’re going to be looking for new ways to save money in 2011. And instead of embarking on a complicated virtualization deployment, they might as well just move everything to the public cloud instead.”


That means that 80% of businesses are already using virtualization (including) cloud computing.

In addition, they expect that 20% will have completely moved all IT to cloud by 2012.
