VMware was founded in 1999 and released its first desktop and server products that year. VMware software provides virtual hardware that allows guest operating systems to run independently and be easily migrated between physical hosts. This allows for improved server consolidation and management in enterprises. Welch's Foods saw significant cost savings and efficiency gains through virtualizing over 80 servers on VMware infrastructure.

3) Providing flexibility through delegation and control by allowing administrators to delegate self-service access and control resource utilization.
This document discusses how System Center provides an integrated platform for managing applications, services, and infrastructure across physical, virtual, and cloud environments. It allows for:
1) Standardizing application deployment using templates to ensure consistent configurations.
2) Creating cloud abstractions that allow resources to be managed across different virtualization platforms from Microsoft, VMware, and Citrix.
3) Providing flexibility through delegation and control by allowing administrators to delegate self-service access and control utilization of cloud resources.
Jan Jackman Cloud as a Platform for Business Innovation and GrowthMauricio Godoy
1) IBM's next generation cloud computing platform promises to drive business transformation, innovation, and growth by providing flexible, agile, and easy to use cloud services at a low cost.
2) The platform offers two tiers of cloud services - one for developing and deploying new applications quickly and at low usage-based pricing, and another for migrating traditional applications with higher availability and managed services.
3) IBM's cloud platform aims to help businesses address key workloads like application development, collaboration, storage, and mobile enhancement through a combination of IBM-delivered and partner-provided cloud services and applications.
This document compares Zimbra and Novell GroupWise. It summarizes that GroupWise lacks consistent experience across clients, has limited web functionality, and does not support ActiveSync for mobile access. The administrator interface is limited and requires using the Windows admin client. GroupWise deployment is on-premise only without true multi-tenancy and lifecycle management is challenging due to differences across clients.
Hybrid clouds are quickly forming on the horizon, and they are transforming the way that organizations do business. Join David Butler, SVP of Marketing at Eucalyptus, Judith Hurwitz, President and CEO, and Marcia Kaufman, COO and partner, of Hurwitz & Associates and co-authors of “Hybrid Cloud For Dummiesto learn what this new cloud deployment model is all about.
This document discusses cloud computing and IBM's capabilities in this area. It describes how cloud computing allows companies to rethink IT and reinvent their business processes to gain efficiencies and meet changing customer needs. IBM offers two tiers of cloud computing services - SmartCloud Enterprise and SmartCloud Foundation - that allow consuming cloud services in a flexible, usage-based model. IBM also provides tools for building private clouds, including pre-built virtual images, workload management, and elastic caching capabilities to optimize the deployment and management of applications in virtualized and cloud environments.
IaaS stands for Infrastructure as a Service. This document discusses Microsoft's System Center 2012 suite, which provides tools for IaaS. It allows self-service provisioning of virtual machines across private and public clouds. It also provides monitoring, backup/recovery, and automation capabilities for infrastructure management and service delivery. The System Center tools work together to provide a unified platform for managing physical and virtual infrastructure from a single console.
