ABSTRACT:
Virtualization was created to simplify management, but most hardware wasn't designed for virtualized environments. In this podcast, computing infrastructure issues expert Gordon Haff explains how to retrofit hardware to make it work more effectively with virtualization software.

Haff explores various hardware enhancements that can help you maximize virtualization's benefits. Listen for expert coverage of the following topics:

  • How virtualization increases memory requirements
  • New frontiers for helping virtualization with hardware, such as VTD and VTC enhancements to improve I/O
  • How hypervisors embedded in servers simplify virtualization deployment
