Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory / National Ignition Facility
Scientists at the National Ignition Facility (NIF)–the world's largest laser, located at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL), a U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) facility–are using an Oracle VM-enabled virtualized server farm to recreate the physical environment and conditions that exist at the inside of the sun. The scientific understanding that results from NIF's experiments could lead to an alternative to carbon-based energy sources that promises clean, sustainable, and essentially limitless energy based on nuclear fusion.

"Virtualization has reduced risk," says Frazier. "It has also normalized a heterogeneous computing infrastructure and given us a better disaster recovery story. This translates directly to greater availability of our infrastructure. It's only because of virtualization that we've been able to dedicate machines to specific workloads. In the old days of 'bare metal,' that would have been too wasteful, and we couldn't have afforded it. Virtualization is the way for us now at NIF, and we expect it to be for LIFE in the future."
