I assumed that when Microsoft released its Hyper-V server virtualization platform that VMware ESX would face serious competition. I thought that the competition between these two x86 hypervisor tools would almost immediately generate a need for cross-platform management tools.

An interesting article talking about VMWare and competition from Microsoft Hyper-V. It’s great that we’re getting competition between the hypervisors, that we continue the message of how virtualization can enable your business remains key; of empowerment through process and technologies.

We need to maintain the momentum of the virtualization method, how people have benefited from the platform, ‘how we’ve got it work’, the more we talk about the challenges and our successes, the more we can work towards a series of best practices, a wiki of ideas if you like – if deploying in this scenario, think about this…

Is Microsoft a real challenge to VMWare, it could be, but let us not focus too much on the competition between the two platforms, focus on the appropriate tools for your user community/your business, ensuring that we get the most value and success from the chosen platform, everything else is noise and detracts from the virtualization message.
