For many manufacturers, the process control environment requires separate servers to support different applications. Virtualization resolves this issue by allowing a single server to simultaneously run multiple operating systems and applications. This improves reliability by insulating these operating systems from hardware changes. This company now offers virtualization support for its core product line (Experion Process Knowledge System), for both DCS and SCADA applications. This helps industrial facilities reduce PC hardware requirements and simplify overall system management and improve availability, reliability, and disaster recovery.
