Virtualization is a technology that permits the abstraction of the software from one computer and its easy deployment in another one, which may house additional virtualized machines. This mechanism allows us to host more than one virtual computer in just one actual computer. An intranet is made up of a set of computers running as servers that are underutilized for the most part. In this paper we want to show virtualization as a tool allowing us to have a more efficient intranet because it helps us reduce the number of computers in the net; more secure because it allows the creation of backup copies automatically; and easier to manage because we centralize all our services with a handful of servers. With all this, virtualization allows hardware, electricity and maintenance savings.
