Performance Impacts With Optimized Virtual Environments on Intel Virtualization Technology-Based Platforms
White Paper The benchmarks are based on SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 using the Xen Virtual Machine Manager (VMM) hosts and both Linux and Microsoft Windows guests on Intel Virtualization Technology-enabled platforms. [03 Apr 2008]
SUSE Linux Enterprise 10 SP1: Virtualization Technology Support
White Paper SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 provides integrated Xen-based virtualization, which can be used to provision, de-provision, install, monitor and manage multiple Virtual Machines (VMs) on a single physical system. [28 Mar 2008]
Getting 10 Gb/s From Xen: Safe and Fast Device Access From Unprivileged Domains
White Paper To improve network performance, the authors have created a "Virtualization aware" smart network adapter and modified Xen to allow direct, but safe, access to such adapters from guest operating systems. [27 Mar 2008]
Scaling the IBM System Storage DS4000 Connectivity on VMware
White Paper IDC indicates that 10% of physical servers deployed in 2007 will run as Virtual Servers (VMware, XEN, or Microsoft) and that rate represents a growth of 52% over the 2006 installation. Over the past few years, VMware and Blade Servers have taken... [03 Mar 2008]
Xen and Server Consolidation
White Paper Xen an ideal solution for server consolidation based on para-virtualization is gaining currency. Enterprises are witnessing a server sprawl as low cost x86 boxes make their way into datacenters. Application provisioning on dedicated servers and... [29 Feb 2008]
Building a MAC-Based Security Architecture for the Xen Open-Source Hypervisor
White Paper The paper provides the rationale behind the sHype design and describes and evaluates the implementation for the Xen open-source hypervisor. This paper presents the sHype hypervisor security architecture and examines in detail its mandatory access... [29 Feb 2008]
Xen: Enterprise Grade Open Source Virtualization: Inside Xen 3.0 - A XenSource White Paper
White Paper Virtualization has become a key requirement for the enterprise. This results from an urgent need to focus on reduced Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) for enterprise computing infrastructure. In spite of - or indeed because of - the widespread adoption... [29 Feb 2008]
Management of a Grid Infrastructure in GLITE With Virtualization
White Paper A solution for controlling and managing a GLITE grid infrastructure can be the usage of virtualization software like XEN. Finally it describes the XEN based production environment through which it creates and deploy virtual machines across the... [29 Feb 2008]
Pre-Virtualization: Soft Layering for Virtual Machines
White Paper Para-virtualization ties a guest operating system and a hypervisor together, which restricts the system architecture; e.g.when Linux uses the Xen API, Linux is unable to run on alternative hypervisors such as VMware, Linux itself, or a security... [29 Feb 2008]
A Study of Introduction of the Virtualization Technology Into Operator Consoles
White Paper It selected Xen as a virtualization environment, since it has enough performance and a function of high availability. This paper introduces a virtualization technology into the control system as operator consoles. [29 Feb 2008]
Server Virtualization Technology and Its Latest Trends
White Paper The Virtual Machine Function is based on Xen open-source technology. IT systems have become increasingly larger and more complex, thus making it more difficult to build an optimal IT infrastructure in today's rapidly changing business environment. [29 Feb 2008]
Using Virtualization to Improve Software Rejuvenation
White Paper The techniques described in this paper have been tested with a set of open-source Linux tools and the XEN virtualization middleware. This paper, presents an approach for software rejuvenation based on automated self-healing techniques that can be... [29 Feb 2008]
Capacity and Performance Overhead in Dynamic Resource Allocation to Virtual Containers
White Paper The paper conducted experiments with virtual containers built using Xen and OpenVZ technologies for hosting both computational and transactional workloads. Off late enterprise data centers are shifting towards a utility computing model where many... [14 Feb 2008]
Attacks on Virtual Machine Emulators
White Paper This paper also demonstrates newly discovered attacks on other virtual machine emulators (Bochs, Hydra, QEMU, and Xen), and describes how to defend against them. As virtual machine emulators have become commonplace in the analysis of malicious code... [08 Jan 2008]
Virtualisation cuts carbon and servers
Comment He used Xen virtualisation software to reduce the hundred Linux-based servers, which used direct-attached storage, down to 10 attached to a SAN. That just leaves the problem of calculating power consumption, as Stewart Baines reports. [21 Dec 2007]
