The Missing Piece of Virtualization
(Source: Neterion) Server virtualization saves money and increases flexibility.  But it faces some real limits.  Currently, I/O-intensive applications like databases or ERP systems are often excluded from virtualization, due to bottlenecks that are introduced by extra layers of software.
