Virtensys has announced that Robert Napaa, Virtensys vice president of business development, will be a speaker in the I/O Virtualization track at the Server Design Summit, taking place on December 1 at the Santa Clara Convention Center. Napaa will talk about redefining the server I/O boundary in today’s data centers.

The two-hour track (2:15-4:15 p.m.) will bring together industry experts and vendors to discuss the challenges presented by virtualization in multi-core servers used in data centers and cloud computing environments. Such servers need fast access to high-performance I/O and storage, requiring the implementation of virtualized intelligent I/O sharing. The session will present approaches to server I/O virtualization, inter-VM switching, and testing within a virtual environment.
