VMWare Tech Talk
10/8: 1:30-2:30 p.m., EE303
Abstract:
Most people associate VMware with hypervisors. Why do 500,000 customers (including 100% of the Fortune 100) pay VMware more than four billion dollars every year when they can download the VMware hypervisor for free? VMware’s most popular product is vSphere, their datacenter operating system. We will informally review a sample of the technological capabilities of vSphere and leave plenty of time for any questions you might have about VMware, vSphere, life in a tech company, projects, career advice, or more.
Speaker Bio: Jon Herlocker is a senior technologist at VMware. Currently his role is the Chief Technology Officer for Log Insight at VMware where he owns all research & development for the VMware vCenter Log Insight product. In roles prior to VMware he has been CTO and VP of Engineering of Mozy, and an Associate Professor of CS at Oregon State.

Delivering the Software-Defined Datacenter and the Next-Generation of IT Keynote by: Jack Lo – Vice President R&D at VMware
Software Techniques for Avoiding Hardware Virtualization Exits Tech Talk by: Jim Mattson On modern processors, hardware-assisted virtualization outperforms classical binary translation for most workloads. But hardware virtualization has a potential problem: virtualization exits are expensive. While hardware virtualization executes guest instructions at native speed, guest/VMM transitions can sap performance. Hardware designers attacked this problem both by reducing guest/VMM transition costs and by adding architectural extensions such as nested paging support to avoid exits. We will go over the complementary software techniques for reducing the exit frequency. Come learn about VMware and the technologies we work on!
Speaker Bios: Jack Lo is Vice President of VMware’s Core Storage and Availability R&D team, which is responsible for the vSphere storage stack as well as High Availability, Fault Tolerance, and Data Protection technologies. Prior to joining VMware, Jack was Director of Software Engineering at Transmeta Corporation. He holds B.S./M.S. degrees in Computer Science from Stanford University, and received a Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of Washington, under the guidance of Susan Eggers and Hank Levy.
Jim Mattson is a senior staff engineer in the virtual machine monitor group at VMware. He received an A.B. in Computer Science from Princeton University in 1987 and a Ph.D. in Computer Science and Engineering from UCSD in 1993. Prior to joining VMware, he worked on binary translation technology for Hewlett-Packard and Transmeta.
