Someone once asked me how you eat and elephant, I answered, one bite at a time. The same is true when you start to re-think your datacenter and how you will go forward into the future of IT.
I am no genius but, it does look like the network is the computer. (I think Steve Balmer from MS kind of missed it when he say the future is the PC.) It also doesn't take a genius to see the amazing opportunity coming over the next three years when the three billionth person joins the network.
Scale is required to reach this vast audience. You can succeed by first re-thinking how a competitive advantage can be had through IT.
A Forrester Research report last fall found that half the businesses surveyed said they are currently "virtualizing" their computer servers; two-thirds said they will start using server-virtualization technologies by the end of 2007.
First you need the recipe to cook the elephant - we can help.
