VMWare Northumberland – Expect more small and medium-sized businesses virtualization

In an article “Expect more SMB virtualization and hypervisor choices in 2013”

Mak King makes the comment “I recently spoke with the office manager of a very small business co-located with my company. When I told him I was involved with server virtualisation to save the company money, he had no idea what I meant, but he said that it sounded complicated. SMBs like his would likely benefit from virtualisation if it were presented in a simple way that would not distract attention from the company’s core business. If Vmware is going to make a push into the micro-business market, SMB managers need to see clearly how virtualization saves costs and energy, and improves redundancy.” I find exactly the same thing. When SMBs realise the benefits of virtualization, which few do, it becomes the only way forward.

VMWare Northumberland‏ – What’s up with VMware?

it was pointed out that in the Enterprise server world VMWare was encountering stiffer competition from other vendors. Notably Hyper-V from Microsoft.

For all of us enamoured with VMWare this is a good thing. Competition is a good thing for users. It sharpens the product. Microsoft Hyper-V is excellent software but our preferred option remains ESXi mainly for its agnostic approach.
