LinuxWorld and virtualization: Xen vs. KVM, Microsoft's Xen-friendly drivers
,----[ Quote ]
| Crosby was also concerned about the proliferation of Linux virtualization
| technologies; meaning KVM, although there are still further Linux
| virtualization initiatives. His plaintive cry is that this fragmentation of
| effort might allow Microsoft to win the virtualization race; the race, that
| is, to be the replacement technology for VMware. While his concern is
| understandable, I'm not sure there's any real way to solve it, particularly
| as a couple of the alternative technologies -- including KVM-- emanate from
| commercial companies that, presumably, have deep enough pockets to keep the
| technologies going for the foreseeable future.

| LinuxWorld exhibition Several people mentioned to me that LinuxWorld seemed
| almost obsolete, in that Linux is now so well-accepted that there may not be
| a need for a conference that focuses on it. I don't know if that's absolutely
| true, and the fact that the conference is the de facto open source technology
| conference implies an ongoing purpose for it.
