Akorri introduces pricing for SMBs

Four new packages are now available to help smaller companies manage virtualized environments that have up to 30 Terabytes of storage capacity. The entry level solution for companies with less than 5 Terabytes of storage begins at a list price of $12,500. These packages can be purchased only through value added resellers or system integrators that are members of the Akorri Optimize Partner Program. In addition, a downloadable BalancePoint demo is available free of charge at: http://www.vmware.com/appliances/directory/1084.

"We are seeing rapid adoption of virtualization technologies such as VMware among small and medium sized enterprises," said Tom Joyce, President and CEO at Akorri. "These companies need best-in-class tools to help them get the most out of their virtualization investments. Akorri's new packaging and pricing for SMBs and SMEs gives IT managers at these companies access to our BalancePoint software for the first time."

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.

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...
