The cloud has come to stay. According to IDC's Worldwide Quarterly Cloud IT Infrastructure Tracker , during Q3 of 2014 total cloud infrastructure revenue for the quarter grew over $6.5 billion, 16 % higher than that in the same dates of 2013.
These data highlight the rise of the cloud phenomenon. In fact, the consultant explains in its report that during the last months of the year one third of the budget spent on "infrastructure of servers, storage on disk and Ethernet switch" was intended for cloud computing.
Regarding 2015 forecast, IDC predicts that the cost of cloud services will rise to 118,000 million dollars. Part of this budget could be allocated to IaaS, SaaS and PaaS solutions.
Much of the success of technological evolution goes through virtualization. A concept that, outside the technical world, is becoming more widespread. It hides a power that, up to now, we have only timidly begun to explore.

It is a regulation characterized by significant fines for non-compliance since its implementation in 2018.
Virtualization comes with a wide range of benefits for organizations. It helps cut IT costs and reduces downtime while increasing efficiency and productivity. It also increases the resiliency of networks, primarily when disasters occur, and promotes more green-friendly operations.
However, using virtual machines also comes with a set of downsides. Information security may get compromised, workloads mixed up, separation duties lost, among other issues. It is vital to know how you can get over these problems, and that’s what this article will discuss.
Let’s get started.
After the Christmas holidays, we return to our blog posts, looking back and reviewing the most read news during the year that just ended.
