VMware's Eric Horschman posted an interesting blog post on VMware's Virtual Reality Blog site answering remarks made by many in the industry that VMware's solution is overpriced. Many have said that with companies giving away platforms built on top of Xen, and Microsoft planning on charging $28 for ...

In case you hadn't already seen it, you should check out what InfoWorld found out about virtualization and security while speaking with a member of the NSA. Executive editor Galen Gruman wrote a really interesting article that you need to read called secret security threats". And then, I'll jump around a bit as I take a look at what some of today's hardware vendors are doing to mix it up with virtualization. LISTEN! ...

Today, the company put out a release candidate of Hyper-V that provides updated, near-final code. According to Mike Neil, Microsoft's general manager for virtualization strategy, "This milestone is important to the hundreds of customers and partners in the early adopter programs, and those of you trialing Hyper-V on your own, because it's ...

Desktop to data center, SUSE Linux Enterprise brings new levels of performance to your mixed-IT environment. ANOTHER LOOK AT VMWARE'S VMSAFE WITH BLUE LANE AND CATBIRD Security in the virtualization space, or virtsec as its being called by some, is supposed to be a big deal. Why? For one, security is a huge topic of concern in the physical world. Consumers and businesses spend large sums of money every year to protect their physical end-points and keep malware from entering their datacenter or homes. And when you transition over to a virtual world, why wouldn't you still be concerned about the very same problem and issues? After ... More of this blog at: 08-03-20 ONE OF THE BIG TAKEAWAYS FROM VMWORLD EUROPE - MANAGEMENT TOOLS ARE NEEDED One of the big takeaways from my VMworld Europe trip was that VMware is definitely responding to the need for management tools. During the show, I couldn't escape from the word "management". VMware announced a number of management products just before the start of the show, and then each of these (Lifecycle Manager, Stage Manager and Site Recovery Manager) applications took center stage during the keynote, the exhibit floor, the break out sessions and the hands-on labs. Don't get me wrong here; ... More of this blog at: 08-03-20 FINDING OUT MORE ABOUT VIRTUAL NETWORKS FROM ALTOR NETWORKS I recently had the opportunity to speak with Altor Networks CEO, Amir Ben-Efraim, so that I could find out more information about virtual networks and what Altor Networks is trying to do with them. Q: So if you would, please tell us about Altor Networks? Altor Networks is a virtual network security company whose vision is to make the virtual network more secure than its physical counterpart. Our team consists of world-class experts in network security, with experience from some of the most respected ...

It wasn't long ago when the company was being accused of moving at a rather slow pace after it had consumed the desktop and server virtualization intellectual property from Connectix Corporation in 2003; and then more of the same seemed to happen after they acquired Softricity's application virtualization in 2006. But since then, Microsoft has been moving rather aggressively to grab more of the virtualization ...
