The Role of Oracle VM Server for x86 in a Virtualization Strategy [30635]
Evaluating the Components and Operation of a Virtualized Environment
"The Role of Oracle VM Server for x86 in a Virtualization Strategy" is Matthias Pfützner's contribution to the series on virtualization. He considers the roles of both Oracle VM Manager and Oracle VM Server. He goes on to suggest that, given the complexity of large virtualization environments, a careful evaluation of TCO and/or ROI analysis is essential. As the underlying infrastructure becomes more and more a commodity, elements at higher levels become more and more important in the decision-making progress, and getting the "commodity" part from the same vendor that is supplying the higher-level elements might become an advantage.

Oracle VM VirtualBox: Personal Desktop Virtualization [30634]
Detlef Drewanz Discusses Installation and Employment
In part 6 of an eight-part series Detlef Drewanz writes about "Oracle VM VirtualBox - Personal Desktop Virtualization" describing Oracle VM VirtualBox and its uses. Oracle VM VirtualBox requires an already-running host operating system on top of which it can be installed. Following installation one can simultaneously run multiple guest operating systems inside Oracle VM VirtualBox using multiple virtual machines (VMs). Oracle VM VirtualBox consists of three parts: the base software package; guest additions; and extension packs. Drewanz next addresses how data can be transferred to and from the guests through external iSCSI storage, with shared folders from the host or via network services.

Managing a Private Cloud with Oracle VM Manager [30063]
Better by Far than a 'Roll-Your-Own' Approach
It is possible to manage a private cloud with home grown solutions, solutions that enable the necessary layering and are capable of managing storage, servers and operating system infrastructure, the database and middleware, along with application administrators for higher layers of the stack. But why go to all that trouble when you could deploy Oracle VM and Oracle Enterprise Manager 12c, which will manage all these aspects of a private cloud for you with so much less trouble? That's what Rick Ramsey advises in directing readers to Richard Friedman's article "What It Takes to Deploy and manage a Private Cloud with Oracle VM."

White Paper: Implementing Root Domains with Oracle VM Server for SPARC [29976]
Introduces Root Domain Model as One of Several Architectures Supported by Oracle VM Server for SPARC
"Implementing Root Domains with Oracle VM Server for SPARC," a new Oracle white paper by Mikel Manitius, Michael Ramchand, and Jeff Savit, describes how to use Oracle VM Server for SPARC root domains (domains that are assigned a PCIe bus) along with Solaris zones for maximum performance and a high degree of flexibility. This combination can be used to provide bare-metal performance and eliminate dependencies between domains, and can be a useful alternative to deployments based on service domains and virtual I/O, co-author Savit posts. The paper introduces the root domain model as one of several architectures Oracle VM Server for SPARC product supports.
