SWsoft sees future in multiplatform management
SWsoft, the company behind the Parallels Desktop virtualization software for Macintosh, expects to release a beta version of a server edition of the software in the next four to six weeks. It is also working on new management tools for the datacenter that will control other vendors' virtualization products.

Corralling VMware virtual machines
The proliferation of VMs in today's datacenter has many IT professionals scratching their heads as to the true extent of virtualization's hold on day-to-day operations.

That’s the no-brainer benefit of server virtualization and consolidation, which is already saving forward-looking companies big bucks in kilowatt hours of electricity, not to mention in hardware and server administration. No wonder so many enterprises are eying fresh virtualization territory: the humble desktop.

Xen masters take aim at VMware
It seems all roads lead to virtualization these days. From every conceivable angle, computing resources are being collapsed into abstraction layers that enable greater flexibility, and storage, application, server, and desktop virtualization vendors are riding the wave. The biggest push and most appealing opportunity is server virtualization, and the biggest and most appealing vendor is VMware. VMware isn't just the biggest player, however; it's also the most expensive option.

Blogosphere pans, praises Safari 3
Apple's just-released public beta of the Safari 3 Web browser -- the first version to run on Windows as well as Mac OS X -- is drawing fervent and sometimes heated reactions from early testers. The following is an unexpurgated sample of what bloggers, ranging from grumpy Windows users to Mac fanboys, had to say in the immediate aftermath of Monday's Safari 3 announcement:

2007 InfoWorld CTO 25: Jamie Bernardin
As the CTO and founder of software maker DataSynapse, Jamie Bernardin frequently finds himself trying to convince IT leaders and administrators to do something they've been hardwired not to: Stop thinking about managing their servers.

HDS blends virtualization with thin provisioning
In a move aimed at the ongoing data deluge and datacenter I/O bottlenecks today's enterprises face, Hitachi Data Systems (HDS) has revamped its storage virtualization strategy in the form of the Hitachi USP (Universal Storage Platform) V, adding thin provisioning to the mix.
