For those of you studying for your VMware VCP5 certification, there is a really nice series of articles over at the VMware: VMware vSphere Blog ow.ly/9Oo9s giving a useful overview of a lot of the new storage features that have been added to the new version of VMware vSphere 5.
For those of you not so technically inclined, VMware vSphere is an operating system that is installed to a server class computer that allows that server to treat a collection of Processors, Memory, and Hard Disk space as a sort of "combined group" of resources that can then be used to make simulated computers and the necessary networks to run them. I know that sounds like a big mouthful and you are right, it is. Basically it's computer software that allows you to make other virtual computers. It is pretty complicated but once you begin to understand the general gist of things, the awesomeness of the concept really grabs you.
If there is interest, I could write a few posts at the laymans level that would explain the general concepts and would perhaps illustrate to those of you who are not "technical" on a daily basis, the benefits of this software.
Let me know in the comments if you have any interest in seeing these kinds of posts.
Thanks
