Virtual Iron goes iSCSI

eWeek reporting...

"According to Gartner, the iSCSI was a $200 million dollar market in 2005 and it's expected to double every year for the next five years. You also have the adoption of iSCSI in enterprises at the department level," Grandinetti said.
He also pointed to a recent IDC forum in New York that discussed the future of virtualization and the need to offer more secure solutions that also address data backup, disaster recovery and business continuity.

What is iSCSI?

I think there is also an acute need to break away from traditional and expensive FC (Fiber Channel)SAN type solutions. That having said, is still in an embroyo stage for an enterprise support. But hey, you could say the same about Linux Support and its getting adopted all over the place!

Cloud Security: Eliminate humans from the "Information Supply Chain on the Web"

My upcoming article, part - 3 data center predictions for 2009, has a slideshot talking about the transition from the current age to the cloud computing age to eventually the ideation age- the age where you will have clouds that will emote but they will have no internal employees.

Biggest management disasters occur because internal folks are making a mess of the playground.

Om's blog is carrying an article about Cloud security and it is rather direct but also makes a lot of sense:

I don’t believe that clouds themselves will cause the security breaches and data theft they anticipate; in many ways, clouds will result in better security. Here’s why: Fewer humans –Most computer breaches are the result of human error; only 20-40 percent stem from technical malfunctions. Cloud operators that want to be profitable take humans out of the loop whenever possible.Better tools – Clouds can afford high-end data protection and security monitoring tools, as well as the experts to run them.
