There are several resources required: Elastic Load Balancers, EC2 instances, EBS volumes, SimpleDB domains and an RDS instance.

Its similar in concept to how the hypervisor is an enabler (but usually not used as a stand-alone product) of data center management services. This blog is related to my 2009 installment on Fabric as an IT Enabler. can be recovered onto another domain (assuming shared/replicated storage). Subscribe to this blog.

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.), and storage connectivity (LUN mapping, switch control) are all abstracted and defined/configured in software.

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.

Thats essentially the idea behind the " Datacenter-in-a-Box :" Most common config uration: Blades + Networking + SAN Storage Most useful tools to manage VMs + physical servers + network + I/O + SW provisioning + workload automation + high availability Thats what Egeneras done with Dell.

In fact, Compute fabrics might just be the next big thing after OS virtualization. Think of it this way: Fabric Computing is the componentization and abstraction of infrastructure (such as CPU, Memory, Network and Storage). Provisioning of the network, VLANs, IP load balancing, etc. Subscribe to this blog.

And I mean I/O components like NICs and HBAs, not to mention switches, load balancers and cables. It means creating segregated VLAN networks, creating and assigning data and storage switches. Subscribe to this blog. Big Data. (6). Blog Archive. Favorite Blogs. Burton Group blog.

As each of these programs was becoming more complex and demand for new operations such as geometric processing increased, the GPU architecture evolved into one long feed-forward pipeline consisting of generic 32-bit processing units handling both task and data parallelism.
