Richard Davies wrote: The UK has a good crop of technology pioneers in cloud computing - for example ElasticHosts, FlexiScale, Flexiant, OnApp - and also some strong government initiatives such as G-Cloud. We will have to see whether this kind of technical leadership converts into swift mass-market adoption or not.

In many cases, the end of the year gives you time to step back and take stock of the last 12 months. This is when many of us take a hard look at what worked and what did not, complete performance reviews, and formulate plans for the coming year.

Virtualization Journal "Readers' Choice Awards" Nominations Close Sept 4
Recognizes excellence in the software, solutions, or services provided by the industry's top vendors

SYS-CON's Virtualization Journal announced today that nominations will close on September 4 for its second annual Virtualization Readers' Choice Awards. The RCA awards recognize excellence in the software, solutions, or services provided by the industry's top vendors. Voting will begin on September 7 and end October 23, 2009. Winners will be announced the week of November 2-4, 2009. To nominate your favorite products and services today, visit this site.

"The i-Technology and Infrastructure professionals who constitute the dedicated readers of Virtualization Journal are personally, professionally, and often passionately involved in the front-line of Enterprise IT. Their recognition is hard to win," said Jeremy Geelan, Sr. Vice-President of SYS-CON Media. "That is why we are so excited to be launching these Readers' Choice awards, an open competition that gives everyone an equal chance, no matter what part of the IT ecosystem they inhabit, of giving recognition to the solutions they commend the most."

SYS-CON's Readers' Choice Awards, also known as the "Oscars of the Software Industry," has been one of the most prestigious industry award programs for more than a decade. This year's virtualization awards will be given in 18 categories and award-winning products and services will be selected by Virtualization Journal readers.

Virtualization takes the cost and complexity out of IT, and can even help us reduce the CO2 footprint. IDC has stated that the virtualization services market alone is going to reach $11.7 billion by 2011 and in general this technology, which has been around for a good number of years, seems suddenly to be on everyone's mind.

In short, Virtualization is fast becoming a key requirement for every server in the data center, enabling increased workloads in server consolidation projects, efficient software development and testing, resource management for dynamic data centers, application re-hosting and compatibility, and high-availability partitions.
