Well, I'm not a "*ML expert" but I think that DCML bring
important features that future systems would be take care:
- Managenability
- Virtualization
- Provisioning and Automation
Maybe the future IT architectures would be like "connected
entities" and not isolated.
From the (CG|DC) architecture level perspective. it
wouldn't have the platform interfaces for Virtualization
perspective? and off course in Open Source manner. I think
that the first platforms that would see supporting DCML
will be closed source.
Best regards,
