VMware over NFS

In fact, for years I have never paid much attention to other protocols until recently. For a long time I felt that FC was good for everything, which sounds weird if you consider who my employer is but then again, NetApp didn't hire me for my CIFS or NFS prowess. I was hired to drive adoption of NetApp's Fibre Channel and iSCSI offerings as well as the help prospects realize the virtues of a Unified Storage Architecture. And speaking of Unified architectures leads me to VMware which represents to servers exactly what NetApp represents to storage.
