As part of our core service model, Williams & Garcia consultants are encouraged to share their knowledge with the IT community at large and contribute to the pool of technical literature often. Below, you will find a sample of some of the works of our principal consults, including books on infrastructure topics, technical white papers, and presentations.

This book is our most recent effort to offer a deep-dive exploration of one of the upcoming virtualization technologies for the enterprise, Xen. The book covers the technical architecture, installation, management, and advanced concepts and configuration of a Xen deployment. We also give some insight into challenges of Xen deployments, as well as the history of server virtualization and its future.

Forward written by Simon Crosby, CTO and Founder of XenSource, Inc.


VMware's Virtual Infrastructure products have led to the rapid adoption of server virtualization. Large organizations have consolidated 100's if not 1,000's of servers to a virtual platform, realizing true value. However, administrators have been pushed to their limits as the paradigm of infrastructure delivery and management changes.

In this book, our consultants discuss programmatic techniques to automate common and not-so-common tasks via the various SDKs and APIs offered by VMware.
