Sun has unleashed a total of six new virtualization systems based on its Solaris 10 operating system. The offerings include virtualization technology for Sun Fire T1000 and T2000 servers with CoolThreads technology which will enable users to run multiple operating systems and up to 32 applications simultaneously with Solaris Containers.Featured Whitepaper

"As server sprawl accelerates and power and cooling costs grow, we see an opportunity to apply our years of expertise in network computing/virtualization to help customers solve these challenges. The Solaris OS is the foundation of our approach, and we build on it with Sun servers, storage, services, and partner services as well." In 2007, Sun plans to deliver fully supported Xen functionality in an update to the Solaris 10 OS. This means that users will be able to run concurrent Solaris 10, Linux and Microsoft Windows operating systems as "guests" on a Solaris 10 OS-based Virtual Machine. Sun also announced support for VMware ESX 3.0.1 on the Sun Fire X4600 server and Sun Blade modular systems.{moscomment} |
