Applying factory principles to accelerate enterprise virtualization

The Intel Virtualization Factory has played a key role in successfully accelerating virtualization within Intel's Office and Enterprise IT environment. We began 2010 with about 12 percent of the environment virtualized; by year's end this rate had more than tripled to 42 percent, and we remain on track to virtualize 75 percent of our environment over the next few years. We plan to further drive adoption of virtualization during 2011, while continuing to improve and automate our processes.
