  • Qlayer provides software for data centers that enables true cloud computing. Cloud computing is rapidly changing the computing landscape . by turning data center infrastructure into an agile services delivery platform. New services such as virtual servers, storage or applications are available on-demand to both technical and non-technical users, with usage-based chargeback. By leveraging and augmenting existing data center infrastructures including all popular Hypervisors, Q-layer provides enterprises and service providers with the ability to deliver IT services simply and with dramatically lower TCO.
  • gogrid GoGrid Cloud Servers support a variety of Linux and Windows operating systems with preinstalled software, such as IIS, Apache, PHP, Microsoft SQL Server, and MySQL. Our Server images allow you to quickly deploy a single server or build a load balanced server network in just a few clicks without having to spend time installing software.
  • Amazon EC2 Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) is a web service that provides resizable compute capacity in the cloud. It is designed to make web-scale computing easier for developers.
    Amazon EC2.s simple web service interface allows you to obtain and configure capacity with minimal friction. It provides you with complete control of your computing resources and lets you run on Amazon.s proven computing environment. Amazon EC2 reduces the time required to obtain and boot new server instances to minutes, allowing you to quickly scale capacity, both up and down, as your computing requirements change. Amazon EC2 changes the economics of computing by allowing you to pay only for capacity that you actually use. Amazon EC2 provides developers the tools to build failure resilient applications and isolate themselves from common failure scenarios.

  • Xen -- virtual machine monitor Xen is a virtual machine monitor for x86 that supports execution of multiple guest operating systems with unprecedented levels of performance and resource isolation. Xen is Open Source software, released under the terms of the GNU General Public License. We have a fully functional ports of Linux 2.4 and 2.6 running over Xen, and regularly use it for running demanding applications like MySQL, Apache and PostgreSQL. Any Linux distribution (RedHat, SuSE, Debian, Mandriva) should run unmodified over the ported OS.
  • Xen (in Russian) [in Russian] Xen - это монитор виртуальных машин (VMM, Virtual Machine Monitor) или гипервизор (hypervisor) с поддержкой паравиртуализации (para-virtualization) для процессоров x86 архитектуры, распространяющийся с открытым исходным кодом (opensource). Xen может организовать совместное безопасное исполнение нескольких виртуальных машин на одной физической системе с производительностью близкой к непосредственной (native).
  • VMware -- commercial virtual machines.
  • coLinux -- Cooperative Linux is the first working free and open source method for optimally running Linux on Microsoft Windows natively. More generally, Cooperative Linux (short-named coLinux) is a port of the Linux kernel that allows it to run cooperatively alongside another operating system on a single machine. For instance, it allows one to freely run Linux on Windows 2000/XP, without using a commercial PC virtualization software such as VMware, in a way which is much more optimal than using any general purpose PC virtualization software. In its current condition, it allows us to run the KNOPPIX Japanese Edition on Windows.
  • KVM -- Kernel-based Virtual Machine is a full virtualization solution for Linux on x86 hardware containing virtualization extensions (Intel VT or AMD-V). It consists of a loadable kernel module, kvm.ko, that provides the core virtualization infrastructure and a processor specific module, kvm-intel.ko or kvm-amd.ko. Now (2007) KVM also requires a modified QEMU although work is underway to get the required changes upstream.
  • VirtualBox nnotek VirtualBox is a family of powerful x86 virtualization products for enterprise as well as home use. Not only is VirtualBox an extremely feature rich, high performance product for enterprise customers, it is also the only professional solution that is freely available as Open Source Software under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL). See "About VirtualBox" for an introduction; see "innotek" for more about our company.
    Presently, VirtualBox runs on Windows, Linux, Macintosh and OpenSolaris hosts and supports a large number of guest operating systems including but not limited to Windows (NT 4.0, 2000, XP, Server 2003, Vista), DOS/Windows 3.x, Linux (2.4 and 2.6), and OpenBSD.
    Simplify management, improve utilization, and cut costs across your entire IT infrastructure.
  • Sun xVM The Sun xVM family of virtualization products uniquely integrates virtualization and management to help you better manage both physical and virtualized assets across heterogeneous environments. Sun xVM will give you an edge in performance and scalability and will help you simplify your path to building a more efficient business.
