Sunday August 30, 2009 Three dimensions of VirtualisationAnother piece of, what I hope is wisdom, coming from my last three months of customer conversations is that virtualisation has three dimensions. We use virtualisation to make large systems small. I call this “Atomisation”. We can also use virtualisation technologies to make many components seem as one, this is of critical use for horizontally scalable services, and I call this “Aggregation”. The third dimension is “Longevity”. Maybe I should play around with “Age” as a word, so each dimension has a mnemonic starting with “A”, but by using a Type II hypervisor, one can protect old software against platform innovation and continue to run it until its business case changes or expires. tags: technology cloud cloudcomputing virtualisation
