Virtualize Your Disaster! Remove the Disaster from “Disaster Recovery”
The document discusses how virtualization with VMware can improve disaster recovery by eliminating hardware dependencies, simplifying the recovery process, enabling easier testing, and reducing infrastructure costs. Key benefits include automating recovery, reducing downtime to under 4 hours from over 40 hours, consolidating production and recovery servers, and centrally managing recovery plans with VMware Site Recovery Manager.
Virtulization
Operating system-level virtualization imposes little overhead as guest programs use the host OS interface without emulation. However, it is not as flexible as other approaches as it can only host the same OS as the host and not different OSes. Some OS virtualizers provide file-level copy-on-write to back up data more efficiently than block-level schemes used by whole system virtualizers. Restrictions are placed on containers to prevent modifying the kernel or accessing certain resources. Virtualization has matured and is used for server consolidation, operational agility through live migration, high availability, and improving responsiveness of IT operations.

Storage virtualization
This document discusses storage virtualization and the growing costs of storage. It notes that data is growing rapidly at 50% per year, which has led to higher redundancies and storage comprising 15% of total IT budgets. Companies are struggling to control this rapid data growth and lack efficient storage solutions. Storage virtualization allows applications to access storage without knowledge of where it resides, which helps improve performance, scalability, utilization and disaster recovery capabilities while reducing costs. However, the cost of storage is still increasing even as hardware costs decrease due to rising management and administration expenses associated with storage.
Virtulization submission
Virtualization is a technology that abstracts computer resources by transforming hardware into software. It allows multiple operating systems to run simultaneously on a single computer as virtual machines. There are different types of virtualization including full virtualization, paravirtualization, and hardware-assisted virtualization. Virtualization enables key aspects of cloud computing like scalability, availability, manageability, and performance by pooling and abstracting hardware resources and allowing virtual machines to be easily provisioned, migrated, and scaled.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdf
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
