Virtualization has taken shape across platforms through hardware, software and a combination of each. This technology has evolved into a mainstream option for all types of organizations regardless of industry. It changes the way that IT professionals view and manage storage and server infrastructure. In this issue of TrendSetter, we explore virtualization from various perspectives - the Intel server space, the UNIX server space, and in storage management. To begin, Mark Waldrep introduces the issue with an explanation of how these new technologies can create a wealth of value when backed with technology expertise. N. Dai Vu focuses on the ground-breaking POWER5 technologies and the virtualization capabilities of the IBM eServer p5 Servers. Meanwhile, Mendel Rosenblum of VMware and Stanford University looks at the virtual machine and the benefits IT Professionals can derive from the new virtualization developments. In the Software Corner, Diane Hage stresses the increased manageability advancements in Storage software -- including Storage Resource Manager and SAN Volume Controller (SVC). The SVC innovation is also a key tool emphasized within our Industry Trends Case Study and this quarter's Tech Tip.
