VMware fesses up – sort of
Thursday, June 22, 2006 by admin
No sooner had I poseted on EMC than VMware issued an intriguing press release, about its support for software test and integration. Don’t get me wrong I’m all for it, and I’m all for VMware “strengthening its offering” in this area. I can’t help thinking however that they’ve missed out one tiny but essential detail – that a significant proportion of VMware use is in this kind of environment anyway. From the release:
“As customers standardize on VMware virtual infrastructure, they are seeing a huge opportunity to leverage VMware’s virtualization platform to enable a clean hardware and configuration-independent way to move from development to test to staging to production and streamline the constant iteration and cycling back through those stages,” said Dan Chu, senior director of developer products at VMware.
Hmmm – perhaps the release wouldn’t have had quite the same impact if it had said, “As customers standardize on VMware in their development and test environment, they may one day conside the use of VMware to deliver a virtual infrastructure…”
Or maybe that’s just me.
