> technically rich, explaining with detail the storage configuration,
> with hint and tips to successfully mimic their deployment. One of the
> novelties of the set up is the use of nested ESX hypervisors to cut
> down the license costs.

Just as a side note, you can also do this with open source solutions,
such as KVM or Xen provided that you have a CPU with Nested Page
Tables.
