Embotics Announces Reseller Partner Program

Cannes, France, February 26, 2008 – Embotics, the Virtualization Lifecycle Management™ Company, today announced the Embotics Partner Program, a network of technology and solution partnerships in the North America, Europe and Asia. The program aims to provide Embotics Value-Added Resellers (EVARs), Embotics Technology Alliance Partners (ETAPs), OEMs and vertical-market solution providers with a first-to-market advantage by supplying customers with comprehensive control software that is designed to identify, track, secure and manage enterprise-wide virtual machines (VMs).

The ETAP program is for partners looking to establish a formal technology partnership with Embotics, and is ideal for both small and large partners interested in everything from certification to integration to co-marketing. The EVAR program is a multi-tier reseller program for companies providing virtualization consulting and support services. EVARs enhance their solutions with Embotics’ technology and receive discounts, leads, sales and technical training, and marketing and sales support.

“The virtualization services marketplace represents a significant opportunity for us, and as the industry demands tighter control of virtualization environments, we are meeting this demand with a comprehensive mix of products and services,” said Sean Shea, enterprise virtualization specialist at Expert Server Group. “Current and future customers look to us for solid control and expanded VM management capabilities, so partnering with Embotics lets us immediately offer these capabilities to our customers, while also providing us with strong support to create new value-added services in a competitive market.” Expert Server Group is an existing EVAR reseller specializing in storage, servers and VMs.

Embotics reduces the risk inherent in virtual servers, and dramatically expands the business benefits and value of server virtualization by combining policy-based management and control, automation and operational oversight. Partners can leverage Embotics’ virtualization lifecycle management expertise and business, marketing and technical resources to deliver valuable and fully-integrated offerings to shared customers.

“Together with our partners, Embotics helps companies and IT departments move beyond server consolidation and expand the use of virtualization within production environments,” said Eric Courville vice president worldwide sales and business development. “Our goal is to work with partners to help expand our customer base and bring the benefits of the industry’s most advanced policy-based VM management and control offering to more companies worldwide.”

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.

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.
