With a record breaking number of product entries this year, TechWorld 2007 Award judges once again had the difficult task of choosing a winner in each category from a host of projects.

The award presentation itself was held at the Gibson Hall in central London. Entrants were evaluated on strategy, creativity, innovation and effectiveness. And they were judged by an independent panel of judges made up of respected individuals from within the IT industry and TechWorld editors.

And it seems as though virtualization made a nice showing at the event.

• Winning "Storage Virtualization Product of the Year" was DataCore Software with its SANsymphony 6.0 product.
• EqualLogic, who has been making the news lately with its PS Series SAN technology being combined with VMware Infrastructure 3, took home the "SAN Product of the Year" award for its EqualLogic PS3800XV.
• Long time virtualiation application provider, PlateSpin, took home the award for "Green Product of the Year" for its PowerRecon 3.0 application.
• And winning "Virtualization Product of the Year"? It may not come as any surprise - VMware scores with its VI3 virtualization platform.
