Doing so brings together the award-winning Virtuozzo server virtualization software with HP ProLiant servers which both companies hope will help optimize their customers’ IT infrastructures.According to SWsoft, the two companies have validated Virtuozzo operating system virtualization software running on HP ProLiant servers and the solution creates virtual environments that can consolidate several servers into one physical server, using either Linux or Windows, which improves utilization and makes greater use of server resources.“Collaborating with HP combines our highly-scalable and manageable OS virtualization software with high-performance HP servers to help customers increase utilization rates and improve their return on investment,” said Serguei Beloussov, CEO, SWsoft. “Virtuozzo software is ideal for HP systems that range from ProLiant servers for SMBs to HP Integrity SMP systems for mission-critical workloads.” Unlike virtual machines and hypervisors, SWsoft says that Virtuozzo addresses the challenges faced by today’s datacenters of operating system sprawl. Its unique architecture and management tools make it the ideal solution for provisioning, monitoring and managing virtualized server resources. Software Development
