A SILVER CLOUD

Virtualisation may drive the CIO’s blues away
Escalating resource pressures on the technology front can really pull down organisations. But virtualisation is one stupendously innovative technological concept that has made matters easier for all such companies. For the uninitiated, virtualisation is about hiding the true characteristics of resources and is one of the key concepts behind distributed network computing today.

This technology will help lower costs by reducing intricacy by slackening management through a common management platform. Virtualisation technology not only enables consolidation of various application workloads on a single machine, but also reduces the number of servers and workstations required to maintain and increase the output. The next generation technology will be a virtualised IT environment that could be effectively managed from a single point of control.

IBM’s latest version of virtualisation named ‘Blue Cloud’ to be launched in the spring of 2008 provides a snapshot into what the future holds. It will link together computers across the globe to deliver Web 2.0 capabilities and enable data centres to be universally accessible from a cloud of resources. The entire system will be supported by its Power and x86 processors. IBM’s Blue Cloud is more about ‘grid’ computing and definitely can be combined with virtualised infrastructure. Blue Cloud is nothing but a commercialised version of the gigantic distributed and blade-based server that Google, Yahoo, Microsoft and others have already built. “Blue Cloud will help our customers quickly establish a cloud computing environment to test and prototype Web 2.0 applications within their enterprise environment,” comments Rod Adkins, who is Senior Vice President, Development & Manufacturing for the IBM Systems & Technology Group.
