SWsoft Introduces Industry’s First Zero Downtime Production Server Migration Without Costly Shared Storage

IT professionals can now move virtual servers between physical servers without end-user disruption or the need for costly storage capacity with the release today of Virtuozzo for Linux 3.0 from SWsoft -- a recognized leader in server virtualization and automation software.

The "zero downtime migration" capability is one of several major new features in the latest version of Virtuozzo for Linux – which also adds new template management, streamlined resource management and expanded operating system support to greatly enhance performance and automation.

SWsoft also introduced Virtuozzo for Windows 3.5.1 – which adds a "physical-to-virtual" tool that enables easy migration from a dedicated physical server to a virtual server, performance increases and updated platform support.

Virtualization Simplification
The proliferation of servers in the datacenter has led to increased complexity and costs. Virtuozzo reverses this trend by dramatically reducing the need for adding physical servers (and their associated capital, power, software and management costs) by turning an existing single physical server into multiple isolated and secure virtual servers, enabling higher server utilization and availability.

The virtual servers perform and execute as independent servers with their own memory, I/O, configuration files, users and applications. Each can be re-booted independently. Virtuozzo management tools provide unified management of up to thousands of virtual servers on hundreds of physical servers.
