Portable, cloud-based virtual data centers? Sure, why not?
I contributed this piece over on TechTarget. I’ve been formulating my own concept of SDDC and what the impact would be on IaaS. There’s an inflection point where the abstracted DC will impact IaaS to a point where cloud management solutions will not need heavy integration with the underlying physical infrastructure.
If and when we get to the point of an abstracted DC we’ll be able to perform P2V’s of entire DC’s just as easily as we do P2V’s for x86 workloads.
