Service-Oriented Virtualization: Encore Webinar Dec. 13

Yesterday's webinar with analyst Theresa Lanowitz and our own John Michelsen on "Service-Oriented Virtualization" was well attended - so much so in fact, that our little event room reached capacity! So we are going to do one more live webinar on this same topic this coming Thursday, Dec. 13, at the same time (11:00 AM EST) -- and this time there will be plenty of virtual room! There is a signup here. There were two recurring themes of the hour covered by Theresa and John:

• one, that NOT doing Virtualization at the data center and test bed layer simply doesn't make economic sense, and;
• two, that SOA without Virtualization is a very hard path to take indeed, due largely to the difficulty of providing access to shared resources, which will constrain distributed development and test teams as they try to collaborate.

The questions were also great, ranging from "So is all the hype about Virtualization real?" to "How can I possibly virtualize complex data objects in my environment?" So if you missed yesterday's webinar (or missed part of it), join us and invite a peer Thursday for the session. Also, check out Theresa's blog on this over at voke. - Jason
