Novell boosts Linux virtualization with VMware support
[Posted September 13, 2007 by cook]
Novell, Inc. has
announced improvements to the performance of SUSE Linux under VMware.
"
Novell today
announced significant enhancements in the performance of SUSE(R) Linux
Enterprise Server when the Linux operating system is running as a virtual
machine guest in a VMware environment. To deliver this improved
performance, Novell modified the SUSE Linux Enterprise kernel to support
the VMware Virtual Machine Interface (VMI), a communication mechanism
between the guest operating system and hypervisor that simplifies the task
of virtualization and makes Linux a more efficient guest operating system
when running in VMware environments."
