IDC: The Synergies Between Containers and Virtual Machines

Sponsored by: IDC

Enterprises are using containers to encapsulate microservices-based apps and for modern workloads such as artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) and edge. Most are modernizing legacy apps, in addition to net-new cloud-native development.

However, nearly all containers run inside virtual machines (VMs), both in on-premises datacenters and the public cloud. Download the IDC technology spotlight report to learn the key benefits of using’ virtualization in the new Kubernetes world:

• Integrated and converged manageability
• Increased security and protection
• Performance and utilization efficiency
• Reliability, availability, scalability (RAS)
• Storage and networking subsystems for workloads
