"SWsoft, Inc., an advanced server and networking
software company, today announced testing results for Virtuozzo
2.1, which set a new standard in enterprise-class Linux performance
by supporting over 2000 instances of the Linux O/S on a low-cost
Dell 8450 PowerEdge server.
As companies like Sun scramble to virtualize their proprietary
operating systems with their the N1 strategy and IBM offers
scaled-down mainframe functionality on the mid-sized z800 Raptor,
SWsoft is today offering highly scalable virtualization technology
for the Open Source Linux OS that will both provide Web hosting
companies unparalleled efficiency and scalability and enable
enterprises to consolidate servers in the data center and better
manage the rapid proliferation of unconnected, underutilized
servers.
SWsoft Chief Software Engineer Alexey Kuznetsov, recognized
leader of Linux networking performance development, is pleased that
his team's Virtuozzo technology can now bring mainframe-inspired
Linux functionality, including high scalability, QoS guarantees and
increased security, within the reach of tens of thousands of SMBs,
enterprises and hosting providers."
