VMware virtualization


As the market leader in server virtualization, VMware offers clear advantages over less costly or well-established virtualization technologies. It also features a management suite of products for virtualized infrastructure and private cloud computing that may continue to dominate the server virtualization marketplace until its rivals catch up on management capabilities. This section offers news, research and tutorials on using VMware virtualization (including ESX, ESXi, vSphere), compares VMware with Microsoft's Hyper-V and Citrix XenServer, evaluates VMware's management tools against its competitors and explores the various benefits and disadvantages of VMware virtualization, from cost to licensing to management hurdles to interoperability, and also provides in-depth discussion on deploying and using VMware's suite of management tools (VMware VMotion, Distributed Resource Scheduler) and more.
