Summary

This IDC study provides a detailed description of IDC's server virtualization market taxonomy. This taxonomy provides technology definitions as well as a description of IDC's approach to segmenting and measuring the server virtualization market. IDC's server virtualization taxonomy is the basis for IDC server virtualization research studies, trackers, and forecasters worldwide.

"IDC's server virtualization taxonomy presents a comprehensive and standardized view of the worldwide server virtualization marketplace," said Brett Waldman, research analyst, System Software. "It brings a sense of continuity and cohesiveness by defining and categorizing a previously vague and confusing marketplace."
