Avastu Associates shining!



I know we are lying a little low lately but it has a deep secret strategic intent! Nope kidding :-). We are on projects and are promoting Virtualization in a major way. All over the place and all the time. I will soon publish a draft on Avastu's "Virtual Appliance Framework" white paper. Dario too is working hard with his exams and working on the Spanish version of our White Papers.

Ashish, my Indian Associate has recently had the distinction of calling himself a , well this is how he put it.

All along I was preparing for NCFM - an exam conducted by the National Stock Exchange of India. Well, now I am a certified financial markets analyst.


Congrats, Ashish! Take a look at NCFM here.

Sridhar, on the other hand has been around the globe, setup his own firm in China and currently working as a Morgan Chambers associate and gave a interview here at BusinessWorld India. Me and Sridhar will do an African trip in the coming weeks.

Great going, guys!

OS Virtualization comparison: Parallels' Virtuozzo vs the rest

Virtuozzo's main differentiators versus hypervisors center on overhead, virtualization flexibility, administration and cost. Virtuozzo requires significantly less overhead than hypervisor solutions, generally in the range of 1% to 5% compared with 7% to 25% for most hypervisors, leaving more of the system available to run user workloads. Customers can also virtualize a wider range of applications using Virtuozzo, including transactional databases, which often suffer from performance problems when used with hypervisors. On the administration side, customers need to manage, maintain and secure just a single OS instance, while the hypervisor model requires customers to manage many OS instances. Of course, the hypervisor vendors have worked hard to automate much of this process, but it still requires more effort to manage and maintain multiple operating systems than a single instance. Finally, OS virtualization with Virtuozzo has a lower list price than the leading hypervisor for comme...
