Virtualization marketplace continues to heat up

02/26/2009  
Relevance: 3.65
Virtualization has been a buzz word for a few years now. Some people think it has been over-hyped but I'm not one of those people. The big competing products seem to be: VMware, Xen, KVM, VirtualBox, Parallels (including OpenVZ), and Hyper-V. Is there too much choice out there? Choice isn't bad, is it? Will there eventually be a market shake up with a thinning of product candidates as a result? Will someone try to proclaim that they are the virtualization"standard"? I don't really know. I certainly like competition and don't think having a number of competing products is bad. There are both proprietary products and FOSS products. As you can guess, I lean towards the later if at all possible.

Getting started with Linux virtualization

05/01/2008  
Relevance: 3.59
With all the Linux distributions available, trying out more than one can be tempting. By installing a virtual environment, you can run several operating systems on your machine, keeping them completely isolated from each other in their own sandboxes. Here's a look at how get started with three popular virtualization environments: VMware, VirtualBox, and QEMU. In a virtual ecosystem, a host operating system runs one or more guest virtual machines in a simulated environment. Each guest believes it has all of the host's physical hardware at its disposal.

Build a Linux Training Network in 20 Minutes

Relevance: 3.59
If your interest is in becoming a Linux administrator one skill you must have is the ability to network servers and understand the interaction between servers. You will also need to know how to build servers using RAID, LVM and optional file systems. These skills can be practiced on a virtual network of practice servers. You can build a training network using one workstation. I use several options for building a training network; VMWare Player, OpenVZ and VirtualBox.

Virtualization in Linux: A Review of Four Software Choices

02/08/2008  
Relevance: 3.57
This week Canonical, the company behind Ubuntu Linux, announced a partnership with Parallels, maker of the Virtualization products Parallels Workstation and Parallels Desktop for Mac. This makes four different virtualization programs that run on Linux: the free, open source Qemu; the closed-but-free versions of VirtualBox and VMware-Server, and the newly-available, commercial Parallels. This review takes a look at all four, and compares cost, installation, ease of use, and performance.

Android or WebOS? Try before you buy!

Relevance: 3.54
With Google and Verizon recently announcing that several Android hones will be coming out on their network, a Linux lover might have smartphones on the brain. Obviously, having Linux running on your phone is awesome, but which Linux OS should you choose? Android? WebOS? Maybe even Maemo (Nokia N900) or roll your own on a Neo Freerunner? This article will help you run two of these (Android and WebOS) as virtual appliances using VirtualBox. In the first part of the article I'll cover Android, in part two, later this week I'll cover WebOS.

Best of many worlds

08/22/2007  
Relevance: 3.47
WHEN I switched from Windows to Linux last year, a decision I had to make as a technology writer was what to do with readers who were still on Microsoft's proprietary operating system. On one hand, I felt a responsibility to help them see that for many computing requirements, Linux is the superior and more cost-effective choice. On the other hand, I realized that 90 percent of all computers still run on Windows, and that many new programs appear first on this platform, precisely because of its huge user base. Still, I learned quite a bit trying to get there, with a free and open source program from Innotek called VirtualBox, which runs on Linux, Windows (2000, XP or Server 2003) and OS X (Intel-based) computers.
