Microsoft Delivers "Carmine" Virtualization
Racing to catch up with VMware, Microsoft has delivered Carmine or System Center Virtual Machine Manager

Racing to catch up with VMware, Microsoft has delivered Carmine or System Center Virtual Machine Manager (SCVMM), the interface and controls for handling the logical partitions and VMs created by the currently available Virtual Server 2005 R2 and then, well, VMware ESX Server, Xensource and its own Viridian.

Carmine can be downloaded from Microsoft's web site now and goes on sale next month as a bundle called System Center Management Suite Enterprise that includes System Center stuff like Configuration Manager 2007, Operations Manager 2007 and Data Protection Manager 2007 for $860 per physical host supporting an unlimited number of VMs.

In January Microsoft should have a $499 SCVMM 2007 Workgroup Edition that can manage an unlimited number of virtual machines across, at most, five physical hosts.

Cross-platform support for VMware and Xen awaits the release of Viridian, which appears to be the second half of next year.
