India got bitten by the Virtualization bug



It seems like the Indians are finally getting to get grip on themselves and getting serious with it. Honestly I still need to see this really happening. We are ourselves looking for several In-sourcing firms (the one's who are taking all the outsourcing orders from the West and even regionally) and also our tie-ups with the BPO/IPO independent advisers (I will soon publish a Dual-Interview with a top Virtualization vendor and major Outsourcing advisor about their views and relationships of Virtualization and Outsourcing)tell us that this is increasingly becoming part of their advisory package. With "this" I meant the Infrastructure and Virtualization in particular.

In 2007, Indian enterprises would graduate to the second level of 'Dynamic IT infrastructure', where IT infrastructure would be able to effect changes in response to the changing business scenario, it said.

The key technology components that would come to the fore to attain this state would be virtualization, SOA and application integration.


And firms like TCS, Wipro, HCL, Satyam are not the only ones that need to capitalize on it. I actually expect low-cost rivals to grab that market. IBM, Accenture and other consulting too are in the run but "might find too much trouble getting that cultural compatibility hurdle evenly balanced", aldus a consultant.

While there are so many big names , I won't be surprised if VMware got into the "Solutions/Consultancy". That would be pretty well in line with our strategy articles here and would be able to capitalize on this huge market

Anyways here's the news article...

Security: VMware Workstation 6 vulnerability

vulnerable software: VMware Workstation 6.0 for Windows, possible some other VMware products as well type of vulnerability: DoS, potential privilege escalation I found a vulnerability in VMware Workstation 6.0 which allows an unprivileged user in the host OS to crash the system and potentially run arbitrary code with kernel privileges. The issue is in the vmstor-60 driver, which is supposed to mount VMware images within the host OS. When sending the IOCTL code FsSetVoleInformation with subcode FsSetFileInformation with a large buffer and underreporting its size to at max 1024 bytes, it will underrun and potentially execute arbitrary code.

Our frozen chi's and the Workfloor

I left home when I was 20. I had studied Physics(Major) and had no idea what to do next. I took to the seas, I think looking back it was more like a refuge, an asylum. Seeking to get away from all that peer pressure, myself and what not. 1991 June 7, around midnight I arrive in Lagos, Nigeria. Company agent ships me to the nearby hotel to wait for my first “boat”. That's the first time in my life I saw a lot of people , a race totally different from ours. I was warned to be careful, protect my wallet, but they came across as just about any other regular folk. That was my “first encounter”. Funny, since then I have worked with all kinds of nationalities (Japanese, Chinese, Malaysians, Indonesians, Dutch, Scandinavians, Thai, Americans, Spanish, Argentinians,..I can go on and on). What I have learned in all that is that we are all so much alike. But on board a ship it is “ really ” different. Your job is crucial and you must work together. That makes you accept each other realistica...

Whale Fall ----------------- Dress me up in my new threads clasp my greasy palms grease my hair I'm ready for the fall Watch at all the decadence watching the avalanche I'm slipping down losing my buoyancy What's become of us where have we come this far, this close close to the doors I hear them, sublimal chants I'm on the run I race through the human sea I am the king! I'm the slave to my own undoings I'm the jester in my courtyard We jest as we run We're strolling on that thin rope we grope as we rope we're true heros we're the survivors we're the scavengers we're the friends we're the lovers we're the unbred Soon awaiting the fall we're lurking on us we're osedaxing us we're soon going to be done we'll soon be arrested *osedax(bone devourer, newly discovered marine genus) feeds on a fallen(sunken) whale carcass(which is also called a whale fall).
