Pete Malcolm, CEO of VMware, proposes an open cloud ecosystem called the Resource Cloud to address issues with current IT infrastructure management. The Resource Cloud is based on separation of resources, multi-tenancy, and workload policy to give IT teams control over resource provisioning while allowing flexibility. This would reduce IT load, increase agility and utilization, and improve security, compliance, and cost savings over the long run.
