Computer science This study focuses on the implementation of virtualization technology in data centers to provide efficient solutions for increasing the efficiency and performance of data center. Data centers are the building blocks of IT business enterprises providing the capabilities of centralized repository for storage, management, networking and dissemination of data.

This process helps to make data centers green and energy efficient so as to ensure that IT infrastructure contributes as little as possible to the emission of green house gases and helps to regain power and cooling capacity, recapture resilience and dramatically reducing energy costs and total cost of ownership.
