Enterprise Virtualisation Powers Cost-Effective Growth
,----[ Quote ]
| Red Hat, the world leading provider of open
| source solutions, recently released Red Hat
| Enterprise Virtualisation (RHEV) that gives
| businesses unprecedented technology prowess
| to unlock capital and enhance operational
| efficiency. RHEV is built on open source and
| comes at a much lower cost than proprietary
| virtualisation products.
|
| RHEV is the first open source virtualisation
| solution that features Kernel-based Virtual
| Machine (KVM) hypervisor, the software that
| allows multiple virtual operating systems to
| run on a host machine or system.

Open source may be a venture capital dry hole
,----[ Quote ]
| Still, some companies manage to make money.
| Red Hat makes money.
|
| Most people credit Red Hatâs success to its
| relationship with IBM and the fact itâs
| selling a Linux. But I suspect there is more
| to it than that.
|
| Marc Fleury built JBOSS around committers, and
| many cashed out when Red Hat came in during
| 2006. It has taken Red Hat a long time to
| build back a proper support infrastructure,
| but now that work seems to be finally done
| and, while the company doesnât break out its
| numbers, JBOSS seems to be a profit
| contributor rather than a cash sink.

Open source needs successful champions
,----[ Quote ]
| The open source industry needs profitable
| champions to demonstrate success, and
| attract funding and participation in open
| source, according to Red Hat CEO.
|
| In an interview with ZDNet Asia Wednesday,
| Jim Whitehurst said revenue models of open
| source proponents such as Red Hat itself and
| Google, have brought success to the
| respective companies and allowed them to
| contribute back to the open source
| community. Google relies on ad-based
| revenue, while Red Hat's revenue runs on a
| subscription model.

| Virtualization hypervisor, a hardened
