This week at Gartner's Symposium in Orlando I will be presenting "
Virtualization Changes Virtually Everything" and "The Future of Infrastructure and Operations: The Engine of
Cloud Computing". Ken Dulaney and I will also be leading a Masterminds discussion with Cisco's CEO and Chairman, John Chambers. Here's what you can expect:
On Monday, my "Virtualization" presentation focuses on virtualization as a catalyst for change in data centers and in business use of IT; virtualization as a part of overall infrastructure evolution; alternate delivery models enabled by the abstraction of virtualization at many layers; cloud computing as an example that is enabled by virtualization concepts; discussion of the VMware vs. Microsoft choices, and the role of the Xen-based players; virtualization as a change agent in operating system architectures, client computing, software pricing and licensing, IT chargeback, management processes; virtualization as a force eliminating market boundaries and changing the competitors. I give specific advice on how to navigate these changes. And all in an hour!
