Abstract


This IDC Perspective discusses how the rising costs of virtualization have driven organizations to accelerate their application containerization plans. It focuses on the crucial capability of being able to run VM-based applications in Kubernetes clusters, as that enables organizations to address their immediate demand of migrating applications off a hypervisor.

“Increased licensing and operation costs have driven organizations to accelerate their VMs to containers journey,” said Johnny Yu, research manager, Infrastructure Software Platforms, Worldwide Infrastructure Research at IDC. “Running VMs side by side with containers has become a viable option for organizations looking for that VM off-ramp.”
