“”The new virtualization products are intended to help
advance the adoption of virtualization and enable cloud computing
infrastructure deployments.“”Today marks a milestone in Red Hat’s virtualization roadmap,
the immediate availability of RHEV-M an operational management
system for virtualizing servers as well as RHEV-H a standalone,
lightweight high-performance hypervisor built on KVM,” Red Hat
(NYSE: RHT) CTO Brian Steven said during a press conference. “With
these additions to the virtualization product family, Red Hat has
dramatically lowered the bar for IT to deploy and manage
virtualized environments based on the RHEL [Red Hat Enterprise
Linux] platform.”“In February, Red Hat outlined its plan for a suite of KVM-based
virtualization products. Red Hat previously had focused its
virtualization efforts around the Xen hypervisor, but has since
shifted to KVM in a big way — in September 2008, acquiring
Qumranet, the lead commercial vendor behind KVM, for $107
million.”
