With a well-planned deployment, and a good infrastructure, companies can efficiently load-balance their IT environment between multiple active, cloud-based, sites. So, if one site should go down – users would transparently be balanced to the next nearest or most available data center. . Virtualization. Northern Virgina.

Insights into Data Center Infrastructure, Virtualization, and Cloud Computing. When a new server (physical or virtual) is created, much of this infrastructure also has to be provisioned to support it. That is, I/O is virtualized, networking is frequently converged (i.e. a Fabric), and network switches, load balancers, etc.

Erik Smith, notably known for his outstanding posts on storage and FCoE, takes a stab at describing some of the differences between SDN and network virtualization in this post. Virtualization. I’m not sure if this should be considered “storage” or “virtualization,” as the lines continue to blur every day.
