vCloud
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
vCloud is a cloud computing initiative from VMware which will allow customers to migrate work on demand[1] from their "internal cloud" of cooperating VMware hypervisors to a remote cloud of VMware hypervisors. The goal of the initiative is to provide the power of cloud computing with the flexibility allowed by virtualization[2].
The initiative was announced at the 2008 VMworld conference in Las Vegas and garnered significant press attention.[3]
At the 2009 VMworld conference in San Francisco vCloud was featured in the vCloud Pavilion[4]. vCloud was also a subject at the 2010 conference[5]. The vCloud initiative has grown with many public service providers and multiple supporting applications.
