Linux Virtualization Technology

Fedora 13 Expands Linux Virtualization

05/08/2010  
Relevance: 10.96
Virtualization technology has long found a home in Red Hat's Fedora community Linux distribution. Ever since Fedora 4 emerged in 2005, virtualization technologies have continued to advance in the distro and that remains the case with the upcoming Fedora 13 release set for later this month. Unlike Fedora's early virtualization features, which all leveraged the Xen open source technology, more recent Fedora releases have relied on KVM. New KVM performance and scalability features for virtualization will debut in Fedora 13 that will help to push the envelope for large-scale virtualization deployments.

The Virtualization Innovation Comparison of 2009 and 2010

Relevance: 9.95
Why is virtualization so important? The short answer is that virtualization enables businesses to lower their technology Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) while increasing their Return on Investment (ROI). This is done primarily through the multitude of server consolidation projects proliferating every organization's infrastructure in some fashion today. What do the top UNIX vendors have to offer with respect to virtualization? IBM offers PowerVM, formerly referred to as Advanced Power Virtualization, and has just released their POWER7 Systems, which alter the virtualization space (see What's on the horizon in 2010?). HP offers their Virtual Server Environment, which supports both their Integrity and HP9000 server base. Sun offers a new name, the xVM server, along with their mature container-based technology.

Relevance: 9.52
"There is an immense number of virtualization improvements and features in this release," Fedora Project Leader Paul Frields told InternetNews.com."These things will affect anyone using virtualization across the board." Virtualization has been a big push this year for Linux vendor Red Hat (NYSE: RHT). It's also a big area of focus for the Red Hat-sponsored Fedora Linux 12 release, which is due out next week. The Fedora Linux distribution has been including virtualization technologies beginning with the Fedora Core 5 release in 2006 and has been steadily adding new virtualization features ever since. In Fedora 12, the open source Linux community project is adding new technology to improve virtualization memory management and performance.

With Intel Corp. processors supporting the company's Virtualization Technology (VT) becoming more pervasive, Linux kernel developers are writing the code to improve hardware virtualization and hence performance. Speaking at this year's linux.conf.au Linux and open-source conference in Sydney, Intel software engineer Jeff Dike spoke about three virtualization methods -- User-Mode Linux (UML), Kernel Virtual Machine (KVM) and hardware virtualization.

Xen - A GPLed Virtualisation Technology for Linux

10/20/2006  
Relevance: 9.41
This article gives a first hand take on configuring and using Xen to run multiple OSes. The software used for the purpose is the Xen LiveCD which comes with two OS images - CentOS and Debian Etch. It is remarkable that the virtualization can be demonstrated even on a machine running with just 256 MB ram. The article replete with screen shots also lists a couple of practical uses of Xen virtualization technology.

KVM Virtualization Performance With Linux 2.6.31

09/22/2009  
Relevance: 9.02
Earlier this month at the Red Hat Summit where Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.4 was released with support for the Kernel-based Virtual Machine. At this Red Hat event, virtualization -- particularly KVM -- and cloud computing were the most talked about topics. But how is KVM performing these days? With new virtualization refinements going into almost every new Linux kernel release, we have published a new set of KVM benchmarks using the Linux 2.6.31 kernel, to provide updated numbers against our KVM benchmarks from last year and our Core i7 virtualization numbers. This time around, we are also using a Phenom II processor for testing out the AMD-V technology.
