Designing and implementing an educational infrastructure for server and storage virtualization technologies

These instructions give you basic guidelines for preparing camera-ready papers for conference proceedings. In this paper the design and implementation of a server, storage and network infrastructure for the education of enterprise level virtualization technologies is described. The aim of this paper is to provide help for other academic institutions to establish the underlying infrastructure by sharing both the challenges and advantages experienced during the process. The focus of this paper is mostly on the educational aspects, but some light is also shed on the energy- and cost-effectiveness of such systems.
