vBlades: Solving one more layer of complexity
Posted April,30,2007 by Pete Manca
I've been blogging for some time now about the benefits of hypervisors and also the risk of adding complexity when choosing virtual machines as a strategy for the data center. Today Egenera announced a new product named vBlades that will provide all of the benefits that hypervisors provide while reducing the risk and complexity that can accompany this technology.
vBlades are partitions of blades that can be user defined. Once defined, they can be pooled and used just like any other resources in the Processing Area Network. That’s really all the user needs to know – there is no separate management console to manage the vBlade. There are no separate tools required to massage your binary to be physical or virtual. There are no add-on products required to get security, HA, DR, and all of the other features that enterprise customers demand. Just create the size of the vBlade you want and start deploying servers. It’s as simple as that. And the best part is that the servers you deploy are pre-wired, pre-configured for redundant device access, security, N+1 hardware failover, N+1 disaster recovery, etc. vBlades is changing the game in how virtual machines are managed. Today we announced vBlade support for XenSource’s XenEnterprise. This will be the first in a series of partnerships that we integrate into vBlades. Simple, Secure, Redundant, Flexible virtual machines.

    Dear Sir,
    Thanks for your Article. I want to have two hosts that they are running Xen-Hypervisor each 3 servers in side as guests. Now, I want to migrate one or two of guests (servers) from one Host to another in case of lack of power (electricity change to generator) and then poweroff the host that I migrated its servers (guests) to other one. Can you please help me if I can use vblade for or other technique? I am really in poor situation now so that I have to solve power problem by this idea.

    Many Thanks
    and Regards
    vakili
