We are pleased to partner with Novell to give customers ready access to an integrated virtualization solution and one place to turn for support."Holger Dyroff, Vice President of Product Management for SUSE Linux Enterprise remarked, "Novell is committed to offering a variety of virtualization choices. Every day customers tell us they want to lower costs and improve server utilization through virtualization with SUSE Linux Enterprise. By creating a bundle with Virtuozzo to deliver through the SWsoft channel, we see this as an opportunity to expand our customer base."Other SWsoft product, including Confixx, HSPcomplete, PEM, Plesk, Sitebuilder, may also be packaged with SUSE Linux Enterprise Server with support provided by SWsoft.

In a November report, Gartner Group said that operating system virtualization will become mainstream by 2010.According to the company, with SWsoft Virtuozzo, a single Linux operating system instance can be dynamically partitioned into multiple, highly-efficient and scalable virtual environments. Virtuozzo includes patented technology that enables density of up to hundreds of virtual environments on a single physical server. Unlike virtual machines and hypervisors, Virtuozzo addresses the challenges faced by today's datacenters of operating system sprawl. Its unique architecture and management tools make it the ideal solution for provisioning, monitoring and managing virtualized server resources.SWsoft is the maker of Virtuozzo operating system virtualization software, which allows a single Linux or Windows OS instance to be dynamically partitioned into multiple, highly-efficient virtual environments. The company joins the current SPEC member companies committed to developing a new virtualization measurement standard, which include AMD, Dell, Fujitsu Siemens, Hewlett-Packard, Intel, IBM, Sun Microsystems, and VMware.SWsoft is a recognized leader in server automation and virtualization software.
