After quite a bit of work by my good friend/colleague Dr. Jeff Goldstein (and a decent amount by me on the back end), Dr. Jeff’s Blog on the Universe is up and running!

I have a feeling that it’s going to extremely popular with a lot of teachers and parents alike. Give it a go and let Dr. Jeff know what you think!

Also, don’t forget to check out NCESSE‘s other programs, like Voyage and Journey through the Universe.

If you haven’t noticed or are a new visitor, I’ve refreshed the look of the site and have actually started the process of re-writing a large part of the content (finally!). Keep in mind that this is not a finished product, more clarity and information coming soon.

If you run across something that doesn’t quite work right or have other feedback, feel free to let me know.

Thanks,

VMWare Virtualization Forum 2009

Published on 08. May, 2009 by drew in Conferences, VMWare

I attended the VMWare Virtualization Forum yesterday in Washington, D.C. and came home even more sure that VMWare is the top virtualization vendor out there. It was a lot of marketing, of course, but I still got a lot of good info out of it. Kind of hard to complain about a free full-day event like that.

The next version of VMWare ESX and associated technologies, dubbed ‘vSphere’ seems pretty impressive, especially when coupled with Intel’s new 5500 series Xeon processors. They are calling it a ‘Cloud Operating System’, which is really more marketing speak than anything. The fundamentals of the ESX products have not really changed greatly, just improved; if you ask me, you could have called the previous versions a Cloud OS too and gotten away with it.

I’m really hoping to make it out to VMWorld 2009 this year and am really looking forward to my first vSphere deployment.
