Scaling the IBM System Storage DS4000 Connectivity on VMware
Category: Storage, Servers and Server OS
Tags: idc, blade servers, data
Overview Over the past few years, VMware and Blade Servers have taken the IT world by storm. According to Gartner, blade servers now account for 12.5% of all new servers and are expected to grow over 29% by 2009. IDC indicates that 10% of physical servers deployed in 2007 will run as Virtual Servers (VMware, XEN, or Microsoft) and that rate represents a growth of 52% over the 2006 installation. As VMware grows in the data center, it presents new challenges and opportunities for how the Server-to-SAN interface needs to evolve and change.
