Red Hat spreads virtualization
One of Red Hat Inc.'s leading Canadian partners believes the latest version of the open source server will prove to be a boon for his firm. “It think it's going to be great,” Paul Kerr, president of Toronto's Scalar Decisions, said of the release this month of Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 5.0.
“I think it will mean a big impact for our business.”
That's largely because it includes the Xen hypervisor for virtualizing multiple operating systems within separate partitions, he said.
Red Hat believes by including virtualization technology in its enterprise server it can lure customers away from paying for virtualization from VMWare.
However, Novell beat Red Hat by including Xen technology in its Suse Enteprise Linux Server 10 last year.
