Center of Excellence „Virtualisierung und Cloud Computing“
Together with Cisco, VMware and NetApp the ZIH of the TU Dresden and the TU Bergakademie Freiberg have set up a new infrastructure for a center of excellence "virtualisation and cloud computing" accross the two locations. For the first time in Germany shared services between two universitites will be tested on a large scale. Students and staff members will be enabled to use centralized applications independent of their computer, platform or location.
