So I have been looking over the last couple on months at the Private Cloud and I have to say I do thing that this could well be the year in which it could take off.
Having been very sceptical about the vCloud offering from VMWare, I had a play with it at VMWorld in Copenhagen in one of the breakout sessions and it really opened my eye's as to what could be achieved with this new technology. Then it just so happened that I was asked to look into what we as a company could do from the private could front, this caused me to look about and see what else was happening in the market, and I have to say the VCE alliance do seem to have the right idea.
Since looking about I have noticed that many of the great and good from the Virtual world seem to be migrating the careers to VCE so they must be doing something right. Could this be there Year it could be...

My predictions for 2011
So for what's it's worth here are my thoughts for what is to come in the next 12 months.
My first one would be I think Microsoft will finally realise that there is more work to be done on User Virtualisation, yes they do application and workload virtualisation but they need to do plenty on the user front. My guess would be that they will fix this with an acquisition, possibly Appsense. While I'm on the subject I also think there is a good chance that VMWare are going to purchase RES Software, as I don't think that the RPO software is doing what they hooped.
VMWare will be providing XenApp integration into the View broker. As I have said many times View as a solution is like a stool with one leg, if the answer is VDI then view is great but if you need anything else then look elsewhere.
I see that there will be a large uptake in the VMWare SRM product.
