Novell is readying two major product launches meant to make its open-source software more palatable to corporate customers.
Linux vendor Red Hat has predicted that virtualisation software will be included in all operating systems for free, while setting out the roles of the two hypervisors it is working on for its own product range.
Suncorp has signed a three-year security and archiving contract with Symantec to protect 20,000 "locked down" Windows XP desktops and servers.
Microsoft said on Wednesday that it has bought Kidaro, a company that helps businesses manage their collection of virtual machines.
Citrix has made an unexpected move into the virtualisation market with its intended US$500 million acquisition of XenSource.
In the Australian market, banks are the archetypal large IT customer: they've got lots of technology of differing vintages, have to spend a fortune on services to stitch it all together, and are also obliged to meet a super-strict regulatory regime which would make most lesser enterprises quake in their virtualised boots.
It has competed hard with the likes of Microsoft and IBM, but over the years Novell has remained a smaller player than either of its two main rivals. CTO Jeff Jaffe tells what Novell has up its sleeve to bring the company up to speed: Fossa, an open source project named after the Madagascan relative of the Mongoose.
