As much as 3 years ago, the company was anticipating "virtualization sprawl", the need for automating VMs, the expectation that IT environments will have both physical and virtual machines, and the fact that "you shouldnt care what machines your software runs on, so long as you meet your SLA".

He has more than 20 years of experience in assisting cloud, storage and data management technology companies as well as cloud service providers to address rapidly expanding Infrastructure-as-a-Service and big data sectors. The last point is key, since modern Enterprise Apps are typically constructed on multiple servers.

More than one person took note of how I compared its simplicity in contrast to other offerings in the same space, but failed to detail the specifics of Egeneras PAN Manager software and how it mapped to 13 common IT Service Management functions. The 13 different functions are mapped onto the data center "stack" at right. Big Data. (6).

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.

This is very much analogous to how OS virtualization componentizes and abstracts OS and application software stacks. The next step is to define in software the converged network, its switching, and even network devices such as load balancers. Provisioning of the network, VLANs, IP load balancing, etc.

Thats to say it includes I/O virtualization, a converged network fabric (including virtual switches and load balancing - based on std. ethernet), and then includes tools for software provisioning, VM management, and high-availability to "universally" manage both physical and virtual workloads simultaneously.

You should think of IOV using the following analogy: The way in which the hypervisor abstracts software in the application domain, IOV abstracts IO and networking in the infrastructure domain. However, to be clear, IOV is not a software layer as-is the hypervisor). Big Data. (6). Data Center efficiency. (1).

other than managing your software stack). 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.

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.
