NextIO,
the pioneer in I/O consolidation and virtualisation solutions, will join
Rackspace, the service leader in cloud computing, in presenting an educational
session titled “Meeting today's challenging Cloud Computing demands with PCI
Express I/O Virtualisation” at Cloud Expo Europe on Wednesday 25 January, at
13:45.
NextIO global vice president of sales and marketing Mike Heumann and
Rackspace lead hardware engineer for cloud servers, James Hesketh, will
underline the necessity of constantly reshaping the fundamental cloud rack
infrastructure as cloud computing evolves to cover a broad range of markets.
Heumann and Hesketh will describe how PCIe I/O Virtualization enables successful
cloud computing platforms and give a vision for the technology going forward.
NextIO recently announced the general availability of vNET
I/O Maestro, a rack-level appliance that simplifies the deployment and
management of complex server I/O by consolidating and virtualizing I/O
resources. This new rack level appliance removes layers of data center
complexities often found in traditional server I/O deployments to maximize the
value, productivity and efficiencies of complex server I/O.
“NextIO’s virtualisation I/O technology gives cloud computing users the
flexibility and agility they need to respond to the changing demands of business
operations,” said Mike Heumann. “As more customers are added to the cloud from
increasingly diverse markets, the rack infrastructure must become more flexible
to adapt to the changing needs, while continuing to reduce costs. It’s a
privilege to be joining forces with Rackspace to discuss this critical topic at
Cloud Expo.”
