ITaaS Future Tech from EMC and VMware
In the second part of Pat’s keynote, I did a quick demonstration of future technologies from EMC and VMware to support IaaS use cases: “An Infrastructure Portal” = The next version of EMC Ionix Unified Infrastructure Manager 2.0 (aka UIM) – target Q3 “An End-user self-service portal” = future capabilities of VMware (“project Redwood”) The point is to show where we’re going (after all – half the fun of EMC world are big “unveil” announcements, the other half is seeing what we’re thinking – and then arguing about it 
The idea that’s important here is that long term, we think infrastructure HAS to become much simpler, and will be abstracted across the stack of server, network, and storage. These abstractions of elements into “service offerings” needs to be simple. Then, ultimately the infrastructure needs to be consumed in new self-service models by end users along with IT.
