Case Study: Virtualization and PCI Compliance

Southwest Airlines is featured in a new video, which mentions PCI DSS compliance in virtual environments using VMware Configuration Manager (VCM).

I noticed this comment on efficiency at the start:

The airline industry is a very tough industry. Airlines weren’t built to run on 130 dollar barrel of fuel.

And then I noticed people in the data center wearing shorts. Shorts? PCI DSS obviously does not include a dress code or say anything about hardware MTBF.

Must be awful hot in those racks…or maybe Southwest also has found efficiencies in cooling.
