Exchange/Partner sessions I went to -- even ones focused specifically on I/O virt. and distributed virtual networking.) We all know who they meant, but... Cross-posting from a comment I left on a French blog that intimated that DVN/DVS were Cisco's doings: Just to be clear, DVN and DVS aren't Cisco's technologies or creations, they are larger branding associated with VMware's new "v-everything" marketing efforts that are grouped under the vNetwork moniker. DVN/DVS speak to the vNetwork elements and their various application to allow functional interface with the vkernel via API (at both the network and appliance level -- which includes what we used to know as VMsafe.) Great summary, Scott. For me, the security implications continue to mount -- with lockstep, record/replay, F/T, and the underlying chipset enhancements coupled with IOV -- holy crap! ..then we've got "cloud federation" ;) /Hoff The whole Nexus discussion has been quite a distraction from the main elements discussed today at the show (esp. since Cisco wasn’t mentioned directly in any of the Tech.
