Hats off to Chad and the rest of his extended team for this post on the latest solution validation results with SharePoint in a virtualized environment.
The headline is hard to miss -- 74% power savings as compared to a physical environment, with equal to better application performance.
But don't stop there -- keep scrolling down for more on exactly how EMC does this solution validation, where to get all the beefy details, and more.
Great stuff, Chad -- keep it coming!

Two days off the grid. I know how that is. ;)

So, what else is there to do when it's 3AM local time, and you just can't sleep? Answer -- the web is always there, isn't it?
Cheers ...

Sharepoint virtualized is absolutely a no-brainer.
Interesting to see that the physical config was on DMX4 and the virtual config was on Clariion.
I'd be interested to see the figures of virtualized Sharepoint on VMware against the same with Microsoft Hyper-V.
