Hyper-V Cloud

Tuesday, November 16th, 2010

http://news.cnet.com/i/bto/20081027/Windows_Azure_610x406.jpgMicrosoft announced that the Hyper-V Cloud has a new group of tools designed for businesses that are looking to generate their own Windows Server-based private cloud infrastructures.

This is one of a few private cloud initiatives Microsoft has announced within the past year, following the launch of Windows Azure Platform Appliance.

It’s kinda cool. Microsoft’s new Windows Azure platform lets service providers and large customers operate the Azure development and hosting platform as a private cloud from their own data centers so that developers are able to create new applications which they can run in the cloud.

Now users can choose from 70 global service providers that offer hosted versions of Microsoft-based infrastructures.  I wonder how this will change the cloud hosting world that we live in?  Would love to hear from all of you different comments on how you think this will change the world?

EMC Buys Isilon

Monday, November 15th, 2010

EMC has just acquired Isilon Systems for $2.25 billion in cash or approximately $33.85 per share. We have been hearing about this for some time but now it is official!  So what will happen with Isilon Systems now?  We use the Isilos storage for our cloud hosting storage platform.  Will we still be able to get our storage platform from Isilon?

Isilon is know for its “Scale-out NAS” storage systems.  This offers customers a scalable but low-cost storage infrastructure for managing a ton of data.  Clients who need Isilon’s data storage capabilities are typically very large storage clients like datacenters.
