ITECBAN is an IT innovation project partially funded by CENIT (a Spanish public R&D program). We're grateful to MITYC (Ministerio de Industria, Turismo y Comercio) and CDTI (Centro para el Desarrollo Tecnológico e Industrial) for supporting ITECBAN through CENIT.
The configuration complexity of preproduction sites coupled with access-control mechanisms often impede the software development life cycle. Virtualization is a cost-effective way to remove such barriers and provide a test environment similar to the productionThe configuration complexity of preproduction sites coupled with access-control mechanisms often impede the software development life cycle. Virtualization is a cost-effective way to remove such barriers and provide a test environment similar to the production site, reducing the burden in IT administrators. An Eclipse-based virtualization tool framework can offer developers a personal runtime environment for launching and testing their applications. The authors have followed a model-driven architecture (MDA) approach that integrates best-of-breed virtualization technologies, such as Xen and VDE.[+][-]
