Novell has released the first service pack (SP1) for its Suse Linux Enterprise 10 server software, which promises better virtualisation and high performance support along with improved security.
Novell has launched a thin-client version of Suse Linux that comes with a tool third parties can use to build tailored sytems.
Microsoft has delayed an update to its current virtualisation software and the beta debut of its next-generation successor code-named Viridian.
Novell will try to recover from earlier Linux fumbles by releasing major updates on Monday, adding Xen virtualisation software to its enterprise server product and glitzy graphics to the desktop counterpart.
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.
With Microsoft set to officially launch Windows Server 2008 this week, ZDNet.com.au sister site CNET News.com sat down with Bob Muglia, senior vice president of Microsoft's Server and Tools Business to talk about what to expect.
