Skytap Virtual Lab, is a virtual lab solution available as a
service over the Web. It enables application development and test teams to
provision lab infrastructure on demand (including servers, software, networking
and storage) and utilize a powerful virtual lab management application to
automate the set-up, testing and tear down of complex, multi-tiered
environments. It also gives distributed teams the capability to collaborate and
rapidly resolve software defects using a virtual lab and virtual project
environment.
SYS-CON’s
Virtualization Journal’s “Readers’ Choice Awards”
SYS-CON's Virtualization Journal announced its first
annual Virtualization
Readers' Choice Awards. SYS-CON's Readers' Choice Awards, also
known as the "Oscars
of the Software Industry" has been one of the most
prestigious industry award programs for more than a decade. This year's
virtualization awards will be given in 17 categories and award-winning products
and services will be selected by Virtualization Journal
readers.
Virtualization takes the cost and complexity out of IT, and can even help us reduce
the CO2 footprint. IDC has stated that the virtualization services market alone
is going to reach $11.7 billion by 2011 and in general this technology, which
has been around for a good number of years, seems suddenly to be on everyone's
mind.
In short, Virtualization is fast becoming a key requirement for every server in
the data center, enabling increased workloads in server consolidation projects,
efficient software development and testing, resource management for dynamic
data centers, application re-hosting and compatibility, and high-availability
partitions.
The tipping point, though - as anticipated by
industry experts already back in 2005 - seems to be coming in 2008.
