First we had the lake of wine. Then there was the butter mountain. Now, thanks to the Federation EMC, we have the data storage business and large data Lake.Combining technologies EMC, VMWare and Pivotal, the Federation of Enterprises of Lake data (FBDL) can be implemented in days and is designed for speed , self-service and scalability.

According to its creators, FBDL can chew and analyze data processed or raw and present it finds a way "consumer". He also capable of self-healing and optimize its analysis, just like Terminator, so end users can create custom applications for their businesses.

Sean Horne, director of technology of EMC, is designed to help companies struggling with the complexity of building their own systems.He large data, said: As these things develop, life becomes increasingly complex. You may need a program, a reporting tool, deposit an instrument of acquisition and the platform to work on all these things, which quickly becomes very complex to try to build a solution that actually delivers results.

Many companies are now saying, "I just need someone to take the genius of my hands and do the integration work with us. 'And this integration work must include outside vendors and suppliers that purchase.

FBDL, which is set to launch next month, has a service onboarding designed to help users to deploy, optimize and customize system.Also available is a test of the value of the service which can demonstrate the ROI proposed by the great Federation data.The EMC Big Data Vision also offers workshops (they used to be called sales pitches, if I remember correctly) to help customers start their trip data large.

The FBDL is designed to be fully cross-compatible with its allies and rivals alike, including SAS and spreadsheet. Integrating Hadoop and Cloudera has Hortonworks.The Lake data may also recommend data based on past behavior, which means it is able to learn and grow with our customers as their needs change.

EMC was looking for a deal to merge with half of the newly established firms and Hewlett Packard, but negotiations stalled and the company has since forged their own way.

VMware To Salespeople: vSphere VMs Running On Microsoft Azure Is A Pipe Dream


VMware has made noises lately to be in the cloud agnostic and work with competitors, but a recent internal communication to its public cloud providers makes it clear that this does not extend to Microsoft Azure.As first reported by CRN last week, Microsoft is the development of technology that allows virtual machines based on VMware running on your Azure public
 cloud. Industry sources familiar with the matter told CRN that Microsoft plans to release this in Azure in the third quarter of 2015.

Equipment Air vCloud VMware product marketing, in a document sent to vendors this week with talking points on how to answer questions about VMware Support in Azure, poured cold water on the ability to easily perform idea.The vSphere Azure is unlikely to be an option for most, if not all, customers in production environments in the near future, the team of VMware vCloud Air said in the document, which was seen by CRN.

Last week, sources told CRN have believed it was possible that VMware is working with Microsoft to allow the virtual machine to run on Azure. But judging by the tone of the document VMware, which does not seem case.In document, VMware says that Azure only supports 10 operating systems, compared to over 90 per vCloud Air. According to VMware, this means that customers can have problems running vSphere virtual machines on Microsoft's public cloud.

Only one virtual machine can not be done to stop a virtual grid more machines that work when you need to turn everything into a disaster is needed, "VMware says in the document." This will be a problem for many customers, and compatibility Azure probably only a viable option for Windows centered customers.Microsoft uses technology from the acquisition of cloud storage vendors InMage last July to allow VMware workloads to run on Azure, sources of CRN.

Understanding VMware, as indicated in the document, is that Microsoft used InMage convert VMware virtual machines to Hyper-V in its own format, so they can be moved Azure. As noted by VMware, there are third-party migration tools VM on the market that do the same thing.InMage also allow Azure site recovery, disaster recovery service Microsoft cloud, Azure VM vSphere to replicate them make Hyper V VM on the fly, VMware says in the document.

However, the conversion process virtual machine from one format to another is an exact science, especially for Windows, "VMware says document.It imply" open heart surgery 'in VM, injecting new drivers to prevent failures BSOD or boot. network configuration is unlikely to survive Azure conversion, especially because it lacks many of the features of the vSphere network too, "says VMware in the document.

VMware and Microsoft spokesman declined to comment.
