Standard Performance Evaluation Corp Developing Virtualization Performance Standards
Many of us in IT are interested in having as much information as possible to make good purchasing decisions. This is true in the virtualization product arena as well. Sadly, there really is very little performance information available today that reflects how each of the mainstream virtualization products compare to each other.
It appears that the non-profit Standard Performance Evaluation Corporation (SPEC) wants to change this by developing a set of standard methods to perform these comparisons. To this end, they are seeking comments from the IT community to better understand the types of information that would provide useful industry benchmarks.
