For servers, the most important part is the application of the operating system, because it is directly related to the ISV technical route, and ISVs technical route and a direct impact on users of the server purchases. This inspired the Solaris operating system with Sun. To rival IBM in the past installed Solaris, for Sun, is the double benefit of a good thing. On the one hand, through IBMs sales channels, allowing more of the Solaris operating system into the market, so as to promote sales of Sun servers; the other hand, since IBMs server and Solaris with, then the Sun server and Solaris with the course no problem, which virtually do publicity for the Sun server. Suns calculations were good, but it is expedient to do so. Sun software is the key to future development. Not to develop Solaris, Sun will lose the support of ISV; do not promote the application of Java, Sun can not win profits. However, in 3 to 5 years, on the Sun, the chips, servers and other hardware products are still forced to develop its business.
The first step is Microsoft Systems Center Virtual Machine Manager 2007, its existing software with Microsoft to integrate, and manage to run the virtual technology and server virtualization technologies is not running. Microsoft said that once after the release of Viridian, will be able to and including those from VMware and XenSource virtualization software interoperability. Microsoft believes that virtualization will not only be confined to the domain server, customers also want their desktop and applications to take advantage of this technology. Microsofts virtualization technology, said David, a director, we believe that the impact of virtualization technology VMware to be much greater than the level of claims.
