Red Hat Takes on VMware, Microsoft in Server Virtualization

"Red Hat is continuing to expand its virtualization strategy, rolling out the latest parts of its enterprise portfolio that is aimed at heterogeneous servers and cloud computing environments.

"Red Hat Nov. 3 unveiled its Enterprise Virtualization for Servers platform, which includes a standalone hypervisor and a management product for servers that run Linux and Windows workloads.

"Red Hat officials say the platform addresses the key concerns—including performance, ecosystem support and cost—that are holding back the wider adoption of virtualization in the data center. The virtualization platform offers better performance at a lower price than competing products from VMware and Microsoft, they said."
