ITWorks Virtualization Seminar

2 days ago, I was speaking at a seminar concerning Virtualization (http://www.eyeon.be/event.php?id=VIRTD1). Together with Wim van Balen, we gave an overview of different virtualization types (from hardware virtualization to application virtualization) and various examples of tools per type. This is a big scope, and perhaps too big for one afternoon.

One thing that I would have liked to do is putting VMware ESX next to Xen (and possibly Virtual Iron) and compare the products on different levels. This, however, is hard because unfortunately I only have theoretical knowledge about the latter two. Ideally, I would like to sit together with some people who know more about Xen and discuss strong and weak points of both. In the end, this is what and IT manager in the field is asking for... Any volunteers?
