A specific angle I want to address here is that of infrastructure automation ; that is, the dynamic manipulation of physical resources (virtualized or not) such as I/O, networking, load balancing, and storage connections - Sometimes referred to as "Infrastructure 2.0". a Fabric), and network switches, load balancers, etc.

Four days packed with presentations and networking (of the social kind). Think of it this way: Fabric Computing is the componentization and abstraction of infrastructure (such as CPU, Memory, Network and Storage). Virtual networking. This permits physically flatter networks. Tuesday, December 8, 2009.

Converged Infrastructure and Unified Computing are both terms referring to technology where the complete server profile, including I/O (NICs, HBAs, KVM), networking (VLANs, IP load balancing, etc.), The result is a pooling of physical servers, network resources and storage resources that can be assigned on-demand.

And I mean I/O components like NICs and HBAs, not to mention switches, load balancers and cables. In the same way that the software domain has been virtualized by the hypervisor, the infrastructure world can be virtualized with I/O virtualization and converged networking. Subscribe to this blog.
