It all started a couple of years earlier when I first started playing with Xen and installed it on my laptop. Not because of self interest but only because our final sem internship project was on Xen. The install and configuration of Xen itself turned out to be a mini project :-). But it was worth the effort to see the excitement and surprise of friends and profs to see two Linux VMs running on the same laptop.
Xen has come a long way from being a stanford university project to a production ready solution from Citrix. Usability has improved many fold and today all you need to do is plug in a USB stick and you are all set to go!!! The big guy vmware has leaped even further and made ESX installable on a VM in Vmware workstation running on a laptop.
Virtualization is turning out to be a fantastic technology and in this blog, I will be sharing my virtual thoughts and experiences. Get ready for the Virtual Journey.
