The virtualization management market is hot, no one is denying that. But as with most things in life, great theories don’t always pan out in practice; technologies can seem flawless in the lab only to fizzle when put to the test in real datacenters. However, this isn’t necessarily the result of any ineptitude on the part of the development team. Rather, it is merely the result of the developers not having years of experience dealing with the hodgepodge and complexity that is the real world of enterprise computing.
This real-world experience is the very thing that could make Credit Suisse spin-off DynamicOps, with its Virtual Resource Manager (VRM) product, a virtualization management powerhouse. It’s difficult to replicate in the lab the conditions and concerns of an international banking goliath.
Anything we can do to improve the provisioning, management and life cycle of the virtualized infrastructure has to be a good thing for the industry and the end user. I need to read up more about it and get in touch with the guys at DynamicOps, it does sound cool.
