Red Hat cranks virtualization power play
,----[ Quote ]
| Red Hat is a player in operating systems and middleware, and it wants to be a
| player in server virtualization - at least more of a player than it has been
| since it parked the Xen hypervisor inside its Enterprise Linux 5 distro back
| in March 2007.

Red Hat makes KVM its Linux virtualization of choice
,----[ Quote ]
| Despite Red Hat’s surprising announcement last week that it would be
| partnering with Microsoft on virtualization, on February 23rd, Red Hat’s
| announced that it would be switching its virtualization strategy from a mix
| of virtualization programs, including the Microsoft-friendly Xen, to focusing
| on Linux’s baked-in KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine)
|
| KVM, as Red Hat CTO Brian Stevens admitted during a press call, is still a
| work in progress. But, Stevens assured the audience, by working with IBM and
| Intel, Red Hat will be able to deliver its full Red Hat Virtualization
| portfolio within the next 12-months. The first fruits of this switch will
| appear in RHEL (Red Hat Enterprise Linux) 5.4, which is due out in August
| 2009.

,----[ Quote ]
| Red Hat will be in a position to offer Kernel Virtual Machine (KVM), the open
| source virtualisation it garnered with the acquisition of Qumranet, in the
| first half of 2009.

| Asked by CBR when Red Hat will be able to offer the KVM technology as part of
| Red Hat Enterprise Linux, the firm’s president and CEO Jim Whitehurst said it
| is “highly likely” that it would be during calendar 2009 but would not be
| drawn further.
