VirtualLogix to demo Real-Time Virtualization for Linux


VirtualLogix VLX for Network Infrastructure enables developers to easily migrate from single-core to multi-core processors by allowing commercial or proprietary RTOSs and Linux OSs to run unmodified on the Intel Core Microarchitecture -- all without disrupting the behavior of their supported applications. Dedicated to delivering the most innovative solutions to the embedded market, VirtualLogix will showcase how its VLX for Network Infrastructure delivers development savings and reduced time to market by re-using existing RTOS code, while maintaining real-time performance and carrier grade quality, as well as scalability across different hardware configurations.

David Beal's presentation "Virtualization in a Carrier-Grade Environment" will discuss the needs and use cases for virtualization in network infrastructure markets where performance and I/O throughput are key parameters that traditional virtualization solutions are not adequately addressing. Beal will cover how to retain the required performance from real-time operating systems, such as MontaVista Linux Carrier Grade Edition and other commercially deployed RTOSs when they are running within a virtualized, shared physical resource environment.

This they plan to do at MontaVista Vision 2007

Security: VMware Workstation 6 vulnerability

vulnerable software: VMware Workstation 6.0 for Windows, possible some other VMware products as well type of vulnerability: DoS, potential privilege escalation I found a vulnerability in VMware Workstation 6.0 which allows an unprivileged user in the host OS to crash the system and potentially run arbitrary code with kernel privileges. The issue is in the vmstor-60 driver, which is supposed to mount VMware images within the host OS. When sending the IOCTL code FsSetVoleInformation with subcode FsSetFileInformation with a large buffer and underreporting its size to at max 1024 bytes, it will underrun and potentially execute arbitrary code.

Splunk that!

Saw this advert on Slashdot and went on to look for it and found the tour pretty neat to look at. Check out the demo too! So why would I need it? WHY NOT? I'd say. As an organization grows , new services, new data comes by, new logs start accumulating on the servers and it becomes increasingly difficult to look at all those logs, leave alone that you'd have time to read them and who cares about analysis as the time to look for those log files already makes your day, isn't it? Well a solution like this is a cool option to have your sysadmins/operators look at ONE PLACE and thus you don't have your administrators lurking around in your physical servers and *accidentally* messing up things there. Go ahead and give it a shot by downloading it and testing it. I'll give it a shot myself! Ok so I went ahead and installed it. Do this... [root@tarrydev Software]# ./splunk-Server-1.0.1-linux-installer.bin to install and this (if you screw up) [root@tarrydev Software]# /op

Virtualization is hot and sexy!

If this does not convince you to virtualize, believe me, nothing will :-) As you will hear these gorgeous women mention VMware, Akkori, Pano Logic, Microsoft and VKernel. They forgot to mention rackspace ;-) virtualization girl video I'm convinced, aren't you? Check out their site as well!
