IBM x3950 M2 -- best of show?
From SearchServerVirtualizaton
Best of VMworld 2007 awards:
The Best of Show award went jointly to IBM and VMware for the recently announced IBM System x 3950 M2 with VMware ESX Server 3i.
"This is the game changer here: an IBM data-class machine with four
quad-core processors in one frame, connectable via InfiniBand, running
an embedded hypervisor," Schlack said. "This makes virtualization
simpler to administer and manage, adding a level of reliability and
security. ... IBM is the first to incorporate these attributes, to our
knowledge, and will likely be followed by others."
Agree? Disagree? What about the
Dell Veso? Or the other vendors who announced plans for boxes with 3i on board?
