Virtualisation solutions specialist VMware is currently enjoying a particularly successful period in its history and extending its lead in the market over a number of rivals.

Last week, Forbes reported that its rating on the stock market had been lifted from Market Perform to Outperform, reflecting its surging strength.

It was said that a combination of VMware's excellence and a market that is receptive to virtualisation had resulted in positive trading conditions.

Now, InformationWeek has joined the list of admirers of the company, stating its new vSphere 5 product is having a tremendous impact.

It noted that conditions in the sector mean VMware's vSphere 5 is the perfect choice for facilitating cloud-based migrations.

The online publication stated that VMware was already one step ahead of the competition, but this is now two thanks to the solution.

Britain's enterprise private cloud market is named as one area in which the company's technology can be considered a must-have, regardless of its price tag.
