Virtualization still a 'megatrend'
Industry experts now believe virtualization will be built into every layer of IT within the next five years.
I've been saying that for the last year or so... but it became clear that I was right when I heard at VMWorld 2005 that Microsoft will be including their Virtual Server technology in their next server platform. Once that happens, everyone who runs their software will get a taste of what virtualization is all about. Then they'll look for the best way to pull it off. I can see that using MS's stuff will be good for the light user, but IT organizations wanting real server consolidation will have to look elsewhere. This is based on my experience w/ MSVS2005EE... and my opinion that it won't really change that much between now and when it is included w/ the OS. They will be happy with mediocrity. But alas, it will be everywhere and more and more people will get a taste of the good-life. Once they know it is good, they will look elsewhere for a serious solution.
