[News] Xen, Open Source Hypervisor, Gets Wider Support

Xen's List of Brand-Name Support Steadily Growing

,----[ Quote ]
| Sun Microsystems (Nasdaq: SUNW) Latest News about Sun Microsystems
| has already committed to supporting Xen in its OpenSolaris operating
| system this year, and in Solaris in 2007. Red Hat said it will support Xen
| in its new Enterprise Linux 5 distribution, due out this December.
| 
| As Xen moves more into the mixed workload environment, however, it's
| bumping into market incumbent VMware. VMware Vice President Brian Byun
| publicly dismissed XenSource's tie-up with Microsoft as a "one-way
| street" that favors Microsoft. XenSource's Crosby countered, calling
| VMware's characterization "the gut reaction from a wounded animal."
