Wanted: Virtualization Engineer, Referee Exp. Pref. – GigaOM

A post from GigaOM on the divide between Network and Server Engineers and the use of mobility in Virtualized Servers. You know, I was just writing an article on this problem.

Looks like those fancy new Cisco Nexus switches might have a purpose after all……..(just kidding).
