4. Analyst Predictions
Server Virtualization Use Increasing
•The installed base of VMs will grow
more than tenfold between 2007 and
2011.
•By 2012, the majority of x86 server
workloads will be running in a virtual
machine.
•7% servers shipped / virtualization in
2007 - 61% in 2013
By 2011, Microsoft's Hyper-V will be the virtual
machine used for at least 20% of the installed
server virtual machines (especially in midsize
organizations).
2008 2011
VMware 90% 74%
Microsoft 8% 23%
Citrix XenServer 1% 2-25%
Other 1% 1%
