Users say: Vyatta at par with Cisco!



I'll tell you something. When the user community starts saying it. You better believe it. It got slashdotted! We already cooked up the Vyatta Virtual Appliance. And it is definitely will be the one I will be using during my trip to Uganda in Nov. There I will be:
  • Organizing workshops
  • Liaising with vendors (VMware, Sun, others)
  • Setting up training labs
  • Advocating the use of Virtualization and setting up a complete enterprise on it!
  • And Vyatta will be our router there!
I will talk more about our trip to Africa. We have been pretty busy with the delegation here. (They are still here) and I've given some trainings/introduction to:

  • VMware's Virtual Infrastructure (Both server side and client side- ACE that is)
  • Open Source technologies (Routers, IPS/IDS, firewalls, ldap, LMS, CRM, CMS..list is endless)
  • WiMAX
Amazing thing was that the folks were truly excited and happy. I'm pretty excited myself as it is really an amazing opportunity to show how we can deliver a low cost yet sophisticated enterprise!

Virtualization: GlassHouse hopes to cash in with its IPO!

GlassHouse Technologies Inc. on Tuesday registered to raise as much as $100 million in an initial public offering that, despite the company's financial losses, could prove a hit with investors drawn to its focus on "virtualization" technology. The Framingham, Mass., company offers consulting services for companies that use virtualization software to improve the performance of corporate servers and cut costs in their data centers. GlassHouse also provides Internet-based data storage. "Software-as-a-service," or SaaS, companies and vendors of virtualization products have proved popular among investors in recent years as corporate customers seek alternatives to conventional packaged software. GlassHouse, with roots in both sectors, will test the strength of that interest, said Peter Falvey, managing director with Boston investment bank Revolution Partners. "It will be a bit of a bell weather," he says. "It's not as though it's the 15th SaaS m...
