Web 2.0 Journal: SWsoft Supports Intel Virtualization

To Developing Virtuozzo Support For Intel Virtualization Technology Capabilities

Mar. 12, 2006 11:30 AM

Virtualization and automation tools provider SWsoft (swsoft.com) announced on Friday that it is developing Virtuozzo support for Intel Virtualization Technology capabilities, including the recently released Intel Virtualization Technology for Directed I/O specification.

By supporting Intel VT and Intel VT-d, says SWsoft, Virtuozzo will offer customers additional levels of manageability, security, isolation and I/O performance.

"Building virtualization technology into the processor enables Virtuozzo to deliver higher functionality," says Serguei Beloussov, CEO of SWsoft. "As Intel adds more technology like VT-d into its processor and chipsets, hardware vendors, software vendors and ultimately end users benefit from more robust virtualization solutions."

The SWsoft Virtuozzo with VT support is scheduled to be released later this year. Virtuozzo VT-d support will follow in conjunction with platform availability. In addition to the close technology collaboration efforts between the two companies, Intel Capital is also an investor in SWsoft.
