VMM Is on Its Second Rev -- And It Hasn't Even Shipped Yet!
The
second
beta of Microsoft's Virtual Machine Manager (VMM) shipped a few days ago,
and Microsoft says it is an utterly different product from beta 1.
VMM is a tool that helps track performance and manage virtual machines. And
if Microsoft wants to keep pace with VMware, it better get products like VMM
right.
In fact, I can't think of a company that has been so successful, despite being
in Redmond's crosshairs. Well, maybe Google!
Does virtualization really represent a sea change, or is it just rehashed mainframe
technology from the '70s? Let me know at [email protected].
