2008 32nd Annual IEEE International Computer Software and Applications Conference The Application of Distributed Virtual Machines for Enterprise Computer Management: A Two-Tier Network File System for Image Provisioning and Management July 28-August 01 ISBN: 978-0-7695-3262-2
In order to simplify computer management, several system administrators are adopting advanced techniques to manage software configuration of enterprise computer networks, but the tight coupling between hardware and software makes every PC an individual managed entity, lowering the scalability and increasing the costs to manage hundreds or thousands of PCs. Virtualization is an established technology, however its use is been more focused on server consolidation and virtual desktop infrastructure, not for managing distributed computers over a network. This paper discusses the feasibility of the Distributed Virtual Machine Environment, a new approach for enterprise computer management that combines virtualization and distributed system architecture as the basis of the management architecture.
