CiRBA continues to grow


CiRBA’s unique technology has garnered significant recognition within the analyst and press community, including:

  • CiRBA was named to Network World’s “10 Management Companies to Watch” list in October 2006 and to the publication’s “IT Management Companies Still Worth Watching” list in September 2007.
  • Burton Group’s Senior Analyst Chris Wolf noted: “CiRBA has yet to reach the same market share as PlateSpin, but CiRBA’s emergence as the dominant P2V planning tool is only a matter of time.”
  • Forrester Research Senior Analyst Evelyn Hubbert: “This is going to be something the big guys will want to have as virtualization adoption moves more aggressively into production.”

Significant customer growth

CiRBA saw a significant increase in market traction in 2007 and over the past six months in particular, with a dramatic 130% increase in its customer base. CiRBA added enterprise customers in the US, across all major industries and federal governments, and is seeing a significant demand for its software in Europe.

New European headquarters, increased global presence

In order to accommodate the industry’s growing demand for virtualization and consolidation analysis solutions and expand its global presence, CiRBA appointed a new Vice President of EMEA, Ayman Gabarin. From this London location, CiRBA will deliver a heightened level of service and support to its European customers and partners. CiRBA has also signed new resellers and services partners to reach into the South American and South African markets.

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.
