Project source: PureStorage-OpenConnect/pure-hypervisor-integration-framework on GitHub For most of the last two decades, enterprise virtualization had a fairly predictable center of gravity: VMware. Storage vendors built deep integrations with vSphere. Backup platforms built around VMware APIs. Migration products commonly approached VMware as a source by reading its virtual disks and moving those blocks somewhere else. ThatContinue reading “Building PHIF: Modular Hypervisor Integrations, Storage-Native Mobility, and a VMware Migration Path That Doesn’t Depend on VDDK”
