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.
Linux specialist Red Hat has announced it is developing an embedded hypervisor product that it claims will complement, rather than compete with, its existing virtualisation strategy.
Heading in a different direction from its main rivals, Ubuntu Linux will use KVM as its primary virtualisation software.
A senior Red Hat executive today maintained the Xen open source virtualisation environment was not yet ready for enterprise use, despite "unbelievable" customer demand and the fact rival Novell has already started shipping the software.
Virtualisation vendor VMware has quietly begun sharing some of its software secrets with the IT security industry under an unannounced plan to create better ways of securing virtual machines.
A new open-source virtual-machine project has quickly won Linux allies, but its arrival brings complications.

Microsoft is taking a stand on an emerging technology that threatens to reshape software pricing models.
Companies that offer virtualisation software are changing their business models and tweaking their software.
Two years ago, software engineer Shaun Walker got an e-mail from a Microsoft product manager, suggesting ways to keep Walker's development project from foundering.
