VMware had 2 sessions that day - by Dan Chu (Vice President of Emerging Products and Markets - which at VMware includes everything from overseeing the SMB space, to virtual appliances, to cloud computing) and byPreeti Somal (Vice President R&D Cloud Computing).
Basically, these were a pitch for the upcoming vCloud solution. The basic idea is actually very close to what we get from 3tera and rPath: the cloud is just a set of virtual machines, let’s make them standardized across the datacenters and provide administrators the ability to manage them as a system - and we got a great flexible solution without a hosting vendor lock-in.
vCloud is definitely more of a roadmap rather than a solution you can try:
Today, they have their existing on-premise Virtual Infrastructure which a lot of us are using in our companies. In addition to that they have over a 100 hosting partners committed to providing this infrastructure in their datacenter - thus providing the flexibility to choose the hosting vendor.
Next year we will start getting into the second phase - so called “vCloud Services”: which basically means that we will get OVF-based way of grouping virtual machines into systems together with associated policies. And we might get a few sample solutions like the “flex capacity” scanario which was demoed during the VMWorld keynote in September.
Finally, they will provide full Virtual Center integration so you can manage your VMs in one console regardless of whether they are deployed in your network or by a hoster (they are calling that Federation) and more advanced architecture capabilities. [...]
