Posts Tagged ‘ vSphere ’Licensing: Pools and Architecture Changes?
In the past, virtualization architects and administrators were told the best way forward is to buy as much fast memory as they could afford as well as standardize on one set of boxes with as many CPUs as they dare use. With vRAM Pool licensing this type of open-ended RAM architecture will change as now… Replication Receiver Clouds: Protecting your Data
Security in the cloud and the virtual environment is 'all about the data' and not specifically about any other subsystem. It is about the data. As such the data has something it knows (the contents of the data), something it is (its signature), and something it has (its digital rights) and since it has these… VMware’s CloudFoundry and Red Hat’s OpenShift – Compare and Contrast
Over the last few weeks, VMware (as we indicated in an earlier post) and Red Hat have initiated two very similar initiatives known respectively as CloudFoundry and OpenShift. These are Platform as a Service (PaaS) plays, being developed for the longer term, primarily looking to encourage the development of (and thereafter to provide infrastructure for)… Reinventing the Infrastructure for Virtualization and the CloudRunning VMware on legacy infrastructure is like driving a Ferrari on a gravel road. If you look at what is run in most production VMware environments today, the only really new things in the environment is VMware vSphere, and possibly some new monitoring, security and backup tools. We have barely started to reinvent everything that… Small Business Virtualization: Part 1 – LicensingVMware and Microsoft approach the Small to Medium companies quite differently, but which product to buy often depends on your business needs vs cost of the products. However, there needs to be at least one major distinction: SMB vs SME.

While some may question this statement, the long reaching effects of these purchases will impact virtualization and cloud computing in not so distant future. In fact, these purchases could add a whole new layer to vSphere… vSphere Client for the iPad
The VMware Community Roundtable, which is recorded every Wednesday, has been available for download from iTunes for the last couple of years or about as long has the podcast has been presented on TalkShoe.com. Other than the community podcast and The Virtualization Security Podcast there have not really been too many other things available on… VMware Executive Management Team Changes – The ImplicationsTodd Nielsen has already succeeded twice at what he is now being asked to do at VMware - once at Microsoft and once at BEA. This time what hangs in the wind is VMware's ultimate destiny. Will VMware be the device driver to the dynamic data center (vSphere), or will VMware be that and the… Replacing DRS – With What and Why?The question of whether and how to replace DRS is really a part of the question of what is in the virtualization platform and what is not. Clearly the virtualization platform consists of much more than the hypervisor. VMware would like to define the virtualization platform as all of vSphere Enterprise Plus, and then suggest… |
