Amazon Elastic Load Balancing: A for-fee ($0.025/hour/balancer + $0.008/GB transferred) which automatically distributes incoming application traffic across multiple Amazon EC2 instances. Similarly, Egeneras PAN Manager approach dynamically load-balances networking traffic between newly-created instances of an App.

Each has a differing technology approach to blade repurposing, and each differs in the type (and source) of management control software. The UCS Manager software bundled with the system provides core functionality (see diagram, right). As sophisticated as it is, in contrast to HP, this software is essentially "1.0" Big Data. (6).

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". Big Data. (6). Syndications.

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.
