To achieve the full potential
of "cloud computing" we need a broader definition of virtualization,
and that is the complete de-coupling of the logical components of an application
(represented by the software stack) and the physical resources. In the case of
middleware, whether it is data access, messaging or the business logic, the
physical location of the resources should not matter to the developer and to
the end user.
This is not a trivial thing to do, especially when it comes to
data-intensive, stateful (transactional or otherwise) applications and
services. In this session we will explore the challenges and propose a
solution, including a live demo.

a good number of years, seems suddenly to be on everyone's mind.
In short, Virtualization is fast becoming a key requirement for every server in
the data center, enabling increased workloads in server consolidation projects,
efficient software development and testing, resource management for dynamic
data centers, application re-hosting and compatibility, and high-availability
partitions.
Help with
that transformation: submit your speaking proposal today. Topics will include:
Server Virtualization
Desktop Virtualization
File Virtualization
The Future of the Virtual Enterprise
Hosted Virtualization
Para-virtualization
Virtualization Hardware Support
Hardware-level Virtualization
Storage Virtualization
Virtualization for Server Consolidation and Containment
