Virtualization was a Big Deal at TechEd 2008

TechEd for IT Professionals wrapped up last week, and as you might expect virtualization was a very popular topic. Let's start with storage vendors, a couple of which announced products that will work with Hyper-V last week.

Richard Adhikari has the details on the new products from Double-Take Software and NetApp on Enterprise Storage Forum.

Bob Muglia, senior vice president, Server and Tools Division, also sat down with Forrester analyst Frank Gillett to talk about virtualization, as part of Microsoft's strategy, details on Hyper-V, and compares Hyper-V and VMware products. You can watch the video below.

If you want to see more of Bob Muglia, we've got a Q&A where he talks about Microsoft's interoperability principles and the steps the company is taking to increase the openness of its products.
