    calendar Oct 2, 2009 · 16 min read  ·
    Share on: twitter facebook linkedin copy

    The topic in this article is something that I have been thinking about for a while. It's about the methodology, the patterns, the habits - if you will - associated with how new IT infrastructures are being assessed, designed, sold and - in the final analysis - acquired by end-users for their datacenters.

    Last night I posted a new article about the SpringSource/VMware story and the potential implications for the industry that this will have. After slightly more than 24 hours I am looking at the statistics and they say I am just south of 1000 views, which I think it is amazing - for a casual blogger like myself at least. …

  • VMware, SpringSource and What’s Not Appropriate to Say

    calendar Sep 11, 2009 · 12 min read  ·
    Share on: twitter facebook linkedin copy

    The acquisition of SpringSource that VMware has announced is going to change the way the industry as a whole perceives and segments the key players in the x86 virtualization market. I think most people (myself included) need to change gear and look at the whole thing from a new perspective. In this article I am going …

    In this article, I'd like to document a setup I have been working on for a few days at the LSI office in Milano (great guys and free beverage there! Thanks!). LSI is the company from which IBM OEMs the DS3000, DS4000 and DS5000 lines of storage servers. Since I am trying to get a little bit more into the storage and …

  • Xeon 5500 (aka Nehalem) Marks the Death of Itanium (and More)

    Share on: twitter facebook linkedin copy

    The last day of March 2009 Intel officially unveiled its brand new Nehalem core architecture under the Xeon 5500 product name umbrella. There is not much to say about it other than it's impressive from a performance perspective. Just to give you a sense of what we are talking about the new product - only available for …

  • Cisco UCS: there is something I am still missing

    calendar Mar 31, 2009 · 13 min read  ·
    Share on: twitter facebook linkedin copy

    On Monday 16th Cisco unveiled its Unified Computing System (UCS). A few days ago I have been briefed by some local Cisco guys about the product (err, the architecture as they stressed). I assume that people reading this post know what Cisco is doing and are familiar with the announcement. In a nutshell they have …

  • Hyper-V Server R2: a few additional thoughts

    calendar Mar 19, 2009 · 10 min read  ·
    Share on: twitter facebook linkedin copy

    A few weeks ago I wrote a tutorial on how to deploy Hyper-V R2 on the IBM BladeCenter S where I demonstrated, among other things, how to LiveMigrate from one blade to another. I didn't spend too much time commenting on the implications this will have in the market. In this article, I'd like to comment on some of those …

    I have just got back from VMworld 2009 Europe in Cannes. It was an interesting week and not just because we were in Cote D'Azur (Azur, not Azure like in Windows Azure). There have been a few interesting announcements, demo and breakout sessions going on at the Palais de Festival during the week so it would be difficult …

    My good friend at Microsoft, Giorgio Malusardi, noticed my post "Enterprise Virtualization in a Box" which was essentially an example of how to create a BladeCenter-contained VMware-enabled data center in a box (including servers, storage and networking). Giorgio challenged me with the task to create …
