2006: The Year of the Dog? I think not: The Year of Virtualization!
ONStor’s Jon Toor explains why he believes that 2006 may be the year that use of virtualization technologies really takes off.
While we’ve heard about storage virtualization for years, wide scale deployment has not yet materialized. The technology was supposed to deliver benefits such as reduced management costs and better storage utilization, but for all the promise adoption among users remains low, its perceived cost and complexity remain high, and, frankly, the marketing hype has left users confused over the supposed advantages. In 2006, however, this will start to change. Virtualization will emerge this year as a useful tool, though it may not appear in quite the same form we’re accustomed to. To understand this transition, it helps to dig into what virtualization really is.
