"Red Hat intros VMware hypervisor alternative based on KVM"
"Raleigh, N.C.-based Red Hat Inc. has set itself up as the alternative to VMware Inc., ..."
A Linux-based hypervisor
"The new hypervisor is a lightweight embeddable hypervisor for hosting Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) and Windows-based environments, as well as Sun Microsystems' Solaris operating system. The technology is based on the Kernel-Based Virtual Machine (KVM) project, which was integrated into the Linux kernel in 2006.
Oh, I see, it's Microsoft! Look out VMware, ready or not, here we come...
"Red Hat has predicted that virtualization will be included in all operating systems for free, while setting out the roles of the two hypervisors it is working on for its own product range."
...
"KVM is clean, and is accepted in the upstream Linux community," ... "All Linux distributions will work on this virtualization technology. It's not a bolt-on or graft-underneath technology."
"It?s an old strategy for Microsoft..." Microsoft keeps trying to sqeeze a watermelon seed.
