Herndon, Virginia
- (The Hosting News) - November 30, 2006 - Server automation and virtualization software firm, SWsoft, will demonstrate its operating system software, Virtuozzo, at the 25th annual Gartner Datacenter Conference from through December 1 in Las Vegas.

In addition, Virtuozzo from SWsoft was recently cited in an industry analyst report discussing new technology for data center operating system software.
The report from Gartner stated: ”By 2010, mainstream virtualization technology will embrace I/O virtualization, breaking the traditional bonds between physical servers, network switches and storage area network (SAN) switches; by 2010, shared operating system (OS) virtualization will become mainstream.”

SWsoft Virtuozzo is one example of operating system (OS)-level server virtualization technology cited in the report, which can be accessed from the SWsoft website (www.swsoft.com). With Virtuozzo, a single Linux or Windows OS instance can be dynamically partitioned into multiple, highly-efficient virtual environments. The Virtuozzo architecture enables each virtual environment to scale up to the full resources of the physical server and maintain performance at levels consistent with a native server. Virtuozzo enables density of up to hundreds of virtual environments on a single physical server, which is many more times the number of virtual machines than are possible with other virtualization technologies.

Unlike virtual machines and hypervisors, OS-level virtualization addresses the challenge faced by today’s datacenters of operating systems sprawl. Virtuozzo provides efficiency and manageability that result in the lowest total cost-of-ownership and fastest ROI for customers.

SWsoft is a recognized leader in server automation and virtualization software. With more than 10,000 customers in over 100 countries, SWsoft’s suite of products delivers proven performance, reliability, manageability and value. With offices around the world; SWsoft is a high growth company, funded by Bessemer Venture Partners, Insight Venture Partners and Intel Capital, offering comprehensive solutions – transparently integrated through the OPEN FUSION Initiative - including Virtuozzo, Plesk, SiteBuilder, HSPcomplete and PEM.
