We will have to see whether this kind of technical leadership converts into swift mass-market adoption or not.
At this year’s Virtualization Expo event, learn how Intel’s latest virtualization technology advancements are designed to increase performance while simplifying IT management, reduce the number of physical servers and balance compute workloads on virtual machines. Maximize the flexibility of your assets and get more from every system. All without costly datacenter expansion. To learn more, please attend Intel’s general session to see why great computing starts with Intel inside. For more information, please visit: here.
Third International "Virtualization Conference & Expo" Call for Papers Virtualization, the hottest subject in all IT right now, will be center stage in 2008. Key opinion-formers in the field of infrastructure and pioneers of virtualization technologies of all types have already begun submitting speaking proposals to Virtualization Conference & Expo 2008 East, being held in New York City, June 23-24, 2008. Topics covered will range from Application Virtualization, Desktop Virtualization, Network Virtualization, Server Virtualization, and Storage Virtualization, to Virtual Machine Automation, Physical to Virtual (P2V) Migration, Management Applications, Tools and Utilities, and Virtualization Scripts and Procedures.
Submissions on these and dozens of other topics have already begun streaming in. The Call for Papers is as always a 100% online process, found here.
IDC has stated that the virtualization services market alone is going to reach $11.7 billion by 2011 and in general this technology, which has been around for a good number of years, seems suddenly to be on everyone's mind.
In short, Virtualization is fast becoming a key requirement for every server in the data center, enabling increased workloads in server consolidation projects, efficient software development and testing, resource management for dynamic data centers, application re-hosting and compatibility, and high-availability partitions. Help with that transformation: submit your speaking proposal today. Topics will include:
Server Virtualization
Desktop Virtualization
File Virtualization
The Future of the Virtual Enterprise
Hosted Virtualization
Para-virtualization
Virtualization Hardware Support
Hardware-level Virtualization
Storage Virtualization
Virtualization for Server Consolidation and Containment
Windows Virtualization
Utility Computing
State of the Virtualization Services Market
