Why each option
Server virtualization software provides key benefits such as reducing the overall Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) and enabling rapid deployment of new server instances.
Virtualization itself does not inherently cause larger bandwidth utilization; network usage depends on the applications running within the virtual machines.
While specific applications might perform better on optimized virtual hardware, virtualization generally introduces some overhead, so it doesn't universally guarantee increased application performance compared to a dedicated physical server.
Server virtualization aims to increase the utilization of underlying physical hardware resources, not to reduce overall resource utilization.
Server virtualization consolidates multiple physical servers onto fewer powerful machines, leading to reduced hardware purchases, power consumption, cooling costs, and administrative overhead, thereby lowering Total Cost of Ownership (TCO).
Virtualization platforms allow administrators to create and deploy new virtual machines from templates or images in minutes, significantly accelerating the server provisioning process compared to physical hardware deployment.
