While desktop virtualization and VDI are certainly becoming trendy, the reality today is that properly designing a system is still complex and a source of worry and confusion for many architects. 

Virtualization is one of the hottest topics in enterprise computing today, with advocates promoting benefits including improved business efficiency, cost savings, and mission-critical data and application protection. In this note, we examine opportunities to leverage virtualization to automate consolidation and systems management. 

Troubleshooting is a necessary evil. Where does one start when the operating system does not start, the application does not load or run correctly, the network hangs or a network service does not listen or perform? Linux is noted for being rock solid, stable, and easy to manage but not as user friendly. 

Noted author Jim Metzler reports on the emergence of vWOCs. From the data center to the branch, virtualization is enabling a revolution in how WAN optimization is acquired and deployed. Whether combined with traditional physical appliances or fully virtualized, the new choices make universal network optimization a reality.
