VMWare, Zimbra and the Virtualized Software Stack
,----[ Quote ]
| VMWare appears to be positioning itself to
| provide the virtualized or cloud-based
| alternative to Oracle, Microsoft and IBM.
| This is a very interesting approach, and it
| will be interesting to see it play out over
| time. With Oracle and IBM taking a more
| systems-centric approach, meaning they are
| both providing the storage, computing and
| software stacks in the form of a system, this
| leaves Oracleâs traditional hardware partners
| out in the cold (HP, Dell, EMC, Netapp, etc.)
| along with budding potential partner Cisco.
| VMWare may envision themselves providing the
| Linux-based alternative to Microsoft in this
| game of strategic positioning.

Yahoo! spruces open source Exchange rival
,----[ Quote ]
| Amidst rumors that Yahoo! is looking to sell the
| company, Zimbra has released a new version of its
| Exchange-battling open source email and
| collaboration platform.
|
| Available beginning today, version 6.0 of the
| Zimbra Collaboration Suite adds several
| administrator and mobile tools as well as
| countless tweaks to the client interface. This
| includes client-side changes meant to facilitate
| the addition of Zimlets, those community-created
| mini-apps that hook into outside web services.
| With one Zimlet, for instance, you can instantly
| open a Yahoo! map when a street address turns up
| in your inbox.
