Hardware Virtualization. Statistics. Presentation.

[igor_korkin]

Dear All

In my research I deal with hardware virtualisation (HV) on Intel and AMD PC and servers.

I really need some statistics on increasing number of computers with HV.

I am aware of the fact that now all new computers support virtualisation. The thing is that I have to include the official data on this fact to prevent questions from the Committee.

I mean the data like

amount of sales of computers supporting virtualisation in the last 3-5 years

the share of computers supporting virtualisation in the total number of computers in 2011.

Have you come across a bar graph or a pie chart on this issue maybe in Intel's reports?

I haven't found anything of this kind on the Internet.

I would be really gratefull if you could help me with this.

Yours

Igor Korkin

Hi Igor,

Perhaps you could look toindustry research organizations like IDC or Gartnerfor this kind of information.

Note thatall Intel-based servers have had VT-xsince 2005-2006.So you canassume that all new systems shipped since about 2007will have hardware virtualization support.
