Andrew Kutz already has released amazing pieces of code during the past years, back in May 2007 he revealed the source code of his tool that can add port groups to all your ESX servers. In February 2008 he released the source code of his tool that can be used to create a VI 2.5 plug-in. Andrew really became famous after releasing the Storage VMotion Plug-in. These days Andrew is doing amazing stuff at Hyper9 and announced the immediate availability of the open source (BSD) project from Hyper9, SimDK, a VMware vSphere4 simulator which provides vSphere4 API-compatibility for official vSphere4 clients and other applications built using the vSphere4 SDK.

Andrew Kutz: I think SimDK is one of the most exciting pieces of software released in the realm of virtualization in a long time. If you’re interested in learning more about SimDK or want to become involved with the project, please visit the SimDK homepage (a work in progress). In the meantime, if you have any questions, feel free to e-mail me at sakutz at gmail. Thanks!
