Below is a video that was posted out on the Edge Microsoft site this morning. It features Dai Vu talking about Hyper-V versus VMWare ESX. Dai Vu also talks allot about SCVMM 2008 and how it compares to VMWare Virtual Center. Please let me know what toughts you have after watching the video.
I am always getting asked lots of questions on what VMware is and exactly what it does. Until now I did not have a single video or article that explained almost everything that could be done by VMware. During one of the Vmware Virtualization Forums one of the presentations was recorded. Below is the video from Richard Garsthagen presentation “VMware Vision and Future Direction” which was done at the Swedish Virtualization Forum. I highly recommend watching the video if you are new to virtualizaiton and even if you have been around it for a long period of time. I think everybody will walk away learing something new from this video. Please let me know what you think.
There is a great post on the VMware blogs that talks about how ESXi is not only easier to install but is quicker to install then Hyper-v from Microsoft. One of the more interesting stats that they have is that hyper-v takes seven reboots compared to one reboot of ESXi. It will be interesting to see the improvements that Microsoft will make in the coming months to their product. One thing for certain is that VMware still has a dominant lead over Microsoft in visualization technology.
