Microsoft announced the second release of its Windows Server 2008 operating system at its Professional Developer Conference in Los Angeles this week.
Microsoft, Citrix, Novell and Sun Microsystems all made announcements around virtualisation overnight.
Senior Microsoft security strategist Steve Riley has used the vendor's Tech.Ed conference in Sydney this week to rebut claims by a Polish researcher that Microsoft's hypervisor software could be maliciously replaced on PCs without administrators knowing.
Microsoft officially launched Windows Server 2008, Windows Visual Studio 2008, and announced SQL Server 2008, which is due in the third quarter of this year.
Microsoft's long-awaited server operating system, Windows Server 2008, provides evidence that the company is taking note of what customers want, according to analysts.
Microsoft's Hyper-V is the missing piece from the launch of Windows Server 2008. We examine its background, and predict how the hypervisor market is likely to develop.
Virtual servers have changed the way businesses are run. Now, virtualisation vendors have set their sights on your PC.

With the rise in virtualisation technology, the role of the thin client has changed for the better. As virtualisation expands away from its initial home in the data centre, it's providing a completely new paradigm for the corporate desktop.
Microsoft's Hyper-V is a solid virtualisation platform that's compatible with a wide range of modern server hardware.
ThinApp, previously known as Thinstall, offers a more streamlined and portable approach to new software roll-outs and development. Software developers and administrators of large numbers of workstations and or mobile workers are bound to benefit greatly from this software.
Symantec Backup Exec System Recovery 8 provides flexibility when creating desktop and laptop backups. If you have high value data stored on your computer, then we think $106.53 is a reasonable price to ensure it's protected.
NComputing's X300 provides a cost-effective way to hang up to six terminals off a single desktop PC using low-power, secure, easy to administer and quiet access terminals. It's not for power users, but is well suited to schools, business workgroups, libraries and internet cafes.
This is an impressive update to Microsoft's Small Business Server that packs a big punch. However, it may be overkill for a lot of companies and isn't quite as easy to manage as it first appears.
