Résumé

IT groups are seeking strategies to deliver more reliable, adaptable, and scalable infrastructure solutions at a predictable cost. Virtualization brings us one step closer to utility computing as more of our enterprise clients view themselves as utilities, or internal "service providers." I am confident that you will find this book not only valuable in describing the area of VMware technology but also effective in articulating the people and process components of server virtualization. We hope you enjoy reading this book as much as we've enjoyed writing it!
From the Foreword by Ralph Troupe, President and CEO, Callisma
