Virtualization Players Show No Signs of Interoperability


By Alex Handy
June 21, 2007 — 
Advanced Micro Devices held a virtualization round table on Tuesday night with members of Microsoft, Novell, Sun Microsystems, SWsoft, VMware and XenSource. During the discussion, the audience asked about the potential for interoperability among the various virtualization platforms. While some on the round-table panel did hint that cross-platform compatibility may still be an option, the general consensus was that the future does not hold any sort of great consolidation of standards for virtualization.

In addition, many of those on hand felt that the future of virtualization was in the management tools used to administer virtual servers. Novell has already released such hypervisor management applications in SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, and VMware is also pushing its management tools. Microsoft plans to follow Novell's lead and include virtualization in Windows Server 2008, a move that all agreed is prophetic of the future of virtualization: Soon, virtualization will simply be built into the operating system.
