Happy New Year! What does the virtualization industry have in store for 2008? Who knows. But one thing is for sure… virtualization is maturing at a fast pace and security, patch management, and consolidation are going to be hot on every virtual shop’s mind in 2008.
Two companies that we have been watching for awhile and should be on everyone’s radar for 2008: CatBird for v-Security, and 3Leaf Systems for hardware consolidation. Both companies were discussed last week in InfoWorld’s Virtualization Report podcast: (http://weblog.infoworld.com/virtualization/archives/2007/12/catbird_securit_1.html)
It should be a great and interesting year. We have major VMWare platform upgrades and the release of Micrsofot’s new Hyper-V platform. Keep VMHero on your feed list and stay on top of it all!
