Red Hat announced several moves on Tuesday to bring virtualisation technology to the mainstream Linux market by the end of the year, a move that the company promises will dramatically increase server efficiency.
Open-source specialist Red Hat has released the latest version of its Linux distribution, which will now feature in-built virtualisation and clustering technology.
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.
The company's next Fedora Linux will include the new approach to carving Linux systems into multiple virtual machines.
Red Hat and Novell, the two top Linux sellers, have only just begun building Xen virtualisation software into their products. But they're already planning to add a higher-level option.
A new open-source virtual-machine project has quickly won Linux allies, but its arrival brings complications.
Trying to take a more active role in open-source programming, Red Hat has created a team of 34 programmers to work on nothing but next-generation software.
