Lisa’s organization has multiple servers to cater to the needs of different businesses and clients. Each of these servers runs different applications in order to keep them isolated from each other. The server room incurs a huge cost because of the number of servers owing to the massive cooling systems, server maintenance, data center footprint, and quicker server provisioning. An audit of the resources discovered that most of the servers are idle two-thirds of business hours since these servers are dedicated towards faster recovery during disasters and the isolation of applications. Lisa is looking for a solution to bring down the cost of maintaining these servers, optimize the use of resources, and save money on the energy spent to keep these servers cool. Which solution can meet all these needs of Lisa?
Joan noticed that one of the servers, which she was responsible for, was slowing down due to a spike in traffic. Too many requests came in due to the extra traffic which was eating up all the memory of the server.

This delay was unacceptable to the business; hence, Joan added some extra virtual memory to the server to smooth things out. What is such a feature called?
James owns a company that provides 24x7 telephonic technical support for a technology giant. During a risk assessment, he discovered that should a natural disaster strike rendering his facility defunct, he would need at least a hundred telephone lines up and running within eight hours to keep his business running. He contacted a service provider that assured him that a hundred virtual connections can be provided to him in such a case within the time frame. For such a service, James would have to shell out $10,000 a day. James has a cold backup site that takes 48 hours to become functional. To make it a warm or a hot site, James would have to incur a cost way more than the virtual service. Hence, James kept the cold site and kept aside $20,000 from the company funds for the virtual service should this scenario occur. What is this emergency fund that James kept aside called?
