Breakout
Session: Virtualization: A Networking Perspective - Panel Discussion
Kevin Ryan11/17/2009, 2:15pm - 3:30pm
Terrace Salon One
Data center technology
The drive toward virtualization has done much to reduce costs in the data center, through reductions in both the number of servers and the power required to run them. However, virtualization can bring new challenges on the network side of the equation – if the network cannot fully support the traffic and other requirements of virtualized servers, true optimization cannot occur. Currently there are few if any standards, and only fragmentary answers. This session will examine the state of data center networking today, and include a discussion on standards work, network automation, and other issues of vital importance to achieving data center optimization.
