Product: Altiris Software Virtualization Solution

Key developers: Randy Cook and Jared Blaser

In a perfect world, a computer would stay just as pristine and lightning-fast as the day it came out of the box. Performance wouldn't get bogged down by all the applications added and removed from its operating system over time.

Developer Randy Cook brings us closer to this performance utopia with theAltirisSoftware Virtualization Solution (SVS).

SVS reduces support costs and makes software operations more efficient through on-demand application provisioning. With its ability to switch applications on and off, making them virtually invisible, SVS eliminates application conflicts, makes instant repair of damaged applications possible and significantly reduces testing time for application rollouts.
