[ug-hosug] [Fwd: [osol-mktg] JavaOne OpenSolaris track submission: VMware and OpenSolaris]

[Joe G (Joseph George)]

If you are interested, there is an opportunity to present on OpenSolaris 
at JavaONE. I would encourage community members to submit proposals like 
the one below.

Shiv & Sriram: I think both your sessions would be wonderful to have at 
JavaONE.

If you submit, please let me know.

I'd like to submit the following for consideration as a session during
the OpenSolaris track at JavaOne:

Session: VMware and OpenSolaris
Presenter: Andrew Biggadike, VMware

Virtualization is a familiar term to Java developers, but there's
a very different kind of virtualization that is changing the role of
operating systems in today's data centers and desktops.  VMware is the
industry-leader in hardware virtualization solutions and its various
product offerings allow users to run multiple, disparate operating
systems on a single physical machine.  Virtual machines enable users
to reduce costs and increase flexibility, and are simplifying how many
of today's problems are solved.

This session will provide a technical introduction to virtualization
and the features Solaris users and Java developers will find most
useful.  We will discuss development done at VMware to provide support
for Solaris guests, including development of several components
included with VMware Tools for Solaris.  We will also demo OpenSolaris
running within a VMware virtual machine.

Attendees are not assumed to have prior virtualization experience.
The goal of the session is to provide an overview of what
virtualization is and how it can improve the use of your Solaris
systems.
