Full Summary:
Within many enterprise data center environments, the migration of applications from physical to virtual servers using VMware has reached a tipping point. The applications and workloads that were easiest to move—typically those devoted to test and development, print and file serving, and non-critical applications —have been migrated to virtual machines. Now comes the more challenging assignment: migrating up the application stack to the tier-one applications so that IT administrators can deliver the advantages of server virtualization to critical business applications users.
Virtualizing up the application stack places new demands on the entire IT infrastructure, however perhaps none more than the storage environment. And, with the introduction of vSphere 5 and Site Recovery Manager 5 (SRM) announced earlier this year, assuring storage performance and tighter integration with the storage environment are absolute requirements when virtualizing critical applications.
