Virtualization for development
We've all heard about virtualization for deploying applications. How about leveraging virtualization for development? In this session, we'll look at some time saving tips and build a virtual VM for development and testing.
Developer can make creative use of virtualization software like VMWare for development. In this session, we'll discuss how to create a virtual development environment and the benefits of doing so. We'll also look at several great ways to use virtualization for other development and testing tasks. Driven by demos and live usage of virtualization, the attendee will gain insight into virtualization and how it can be applied to make development tasks easier.
