Comment by John Troyer on 29 February 2008:
Part 2 highlights:
1:45 “Virtualization is the most political product I’ve been involved with”
4:20 AtosOrigin’s Executive Briefing Center
6:20 An executive sees a blade center as too technical, but he understands that if he pushes a button, the power goes off … and nothing happens to his application.
6:50 Application owners still want a physical box they can touch…
8:00 …but the real question should be: Is your application running well? Are you users able to get in?
10:30- a look at the competitive landscape
13:00 “The hypervisor war is over. ESX has won, and other people are playing catch-up.”
[Although the discussion in this section is about the commodification of the hypervisor, I think this statement refutes that claim -- the hypervisor is not a commodity in 2008. -jmt]
