If you are asking about virtualization technology, it is valuable to be able to run any operating system in a virtual environment. This allows for server consolidation without having to buy extra physical server boxes.

You can also use a virtual environment for testing and debugging purposes without fear of disturbing a production environment. For example, I can test several different versions of an operating system at the same time on the same physical box, without having to dual-boot or buy multiple physical servers.
