VMware Marketing guy looks stupid in desperate attempt to slam Hyper-V
About a week ago Scott Drummonds from VMware Product Marketing posted an “anonymous” video on YouTube (see below) supposedly exposing an outage on TechNet/MSDN (MS Ops have already confirmed NO OUTAGES experienced as a result of Hyper-V see here) and a bug with Hyper-V consolidation (the guy at VMware seems to have run the test using virtual SCSI assuming this would achieve the best performance). Jeff Woolsey (Microsoft Program Manager for Hyper-V), took the opportunity to look into this in greater detail:
Personally I think this shows us that VMware are nervous about Microsoft’s Hyper-V product and their rapidly evolving Virtualisation solution set, I would like to think there is enough space for both businesses to work together in this market – well for the next couple of years at least [;)]
