Virtual IQ delivering Xen to the Enterprise

Virtualization's Time Has Come
You've been reading about it for a year now. Freed from the twin burdens of poor performance and high cost that saddle traditional proprietary offerings, Xen-based virtualization has made large scale, production-level virtualization practical.

Commercially Packaged and Supported Xen
XenEnterprise™, the first commercially packaged and supported Xen solution, enables you to easily get Xen up and running. It’s an integrated package that includes a comprehensive tool set to simplify deployment, provisioning and management of a Xen-based virtual infrastructure.

Windows Support
XenEnterprise enables virtualization of servers running Windows and other mainstream operating systems. So whatever your mix of operating systems, XenEnterprise is the virtualization solution of choice.

Blazing Performance
There is simply no comparison between XenEnterpise’s virtualization performance and those of traditional proprietary offerings. Unlike the typical 20-30% (or higher) overhead associated with these older virtualization schemes, XenEnterprise’s advanced paravirtualization architecture offers near “bare-metal” performance.

Full Hardware Support
XenEnterprise fully utilizes the benefits of hardware virtualization on both Intel ® VT platforms and AMD ® Virtualization platforms via Xen paravirtualization.


Features

Easy to use
  • Easy installation of Xen and guest virtual servers.
  • Includes P2V tools to virtualize existing installed server images onto a XenEnterprise enabled server.
  • For standard servers with local storage and diskless blades with remote boot and storage.
Multi-Operating System
  • Supports Windows Server, Linux and Solaris guests.
High Performance Paravirtualization
  • Exploits Intel & AMD hardware virtualization for near bare metal performance of Windows guests.
  • Per guest resource guarantees for CPU, memory and I/O.
  • Up to 32-way SMP guest virtual CPU support, and up to 32 physical processors with dynamic “hot plugging” of VCPUs to CPUs provides an ability to scale compute for virtualized servers as needed.
Extensible Architecture
  • Secure, low maintenance, small footprint virtualization platform
  • Re-uses all Linux distributor certification and testing for greater reliability
  • Supports all open source drivers as well as proprietary drivers for advanced server hardware, giving XenEnterprise support for a huge number of devices
Bundled multi-host Xen management
  • Provision Xen and guest virtual servers.
  • Precise server resource control and assignment of server resources to guests.
  • Real-time monitoring of server and guest performance.
