3Leaf Systems Introduces New Software for Truly Flexible and Dynamic Server Virtualization and Management.PowerCockpit, in Conjunction With I/O (Input/Output) The transfer of data between the CPU and a peripheral device. Every transfer is an output from one device and an input to another. See PC input/output. I/O - Input/Output Virtualization An umbrella term for enhancing a computer's ability to do work. Following are the ways virtualization is used. Hardware Virtualization Partitioning the computer's memory into separate and isolated "virtual machines" simulates multiple machines within one physical computer. , Enables Physical and Virtual Machine Mobility for Cost-Effective, Simplified Management of the Dynamic Data Center SAN FRANCISCO San Francisco (săn frănsĭs`kō), city (1990 pop. 723,959), coextensive with San Francisco co., W Calif., on the tip of a peninsula between the Pacific Ocean and San Francisco Bay, which are connected by the strait known as the Golden -- 3Leaf Systems[TM] (www.3leafsystems.com), a provider of next-generation virtualization solutions for enterprise data centers, is announcing the 3Leaf V-8000 Virtual I/O solution with new PowerCockpit software for deploying, provisioning and managing of servers. The virtualization solution is the first of its kind designed to address heterogeneous Windows and Linux IT environments for increased server utilization with superior migration capabilities. The 3Leaf V-8000, with PowerCockpit provisioning and server management software, gives organizations the flexibility to leverage multi-vendor hardware in a mixed physical and virtual environment. The new solution will be demonstrated at VMWorld 2007 in 3Leaf Booth # 1126. By providing interoperability The capability of two or more hardware devices or two or more software routines to work harmoniously together. For example, in an Ethernet network, display adapters, hubs, switches and routers from different vendors must conform to the Ethernet standard and interoperate with each other. for heterogeneous virtual and physical environments while dynamically provisioning and migrating physical machines, the new solution significantly increases the return on investment for organizations with multi-vendor platforms. PowerCockpit's advanced "smart image" technology abstracts the operating system operating system (OS) Software that controls the operation of a computer, directs the input and output of data, keeps track of files, and controls the processing of computer programs. and application data from the underlying hardware, thereby enabling users to deploy resources only when needed. PowerCockpit allows dynamic server provisioning to quickly deploy a software image to new or existing servers in a network consisting of physical and virtualized servers. The migration capabilities include physical-to-physical, physical-to-virtual, virtual-to-virtual and virtual-to-physical machine migration. In addition, fast provisioning enables users to quickly recover lost functionality or easily rollback A DBMS feature that reverses the current transaction out of the database, returning the data to its former state. A rollback is performed when processing a transaction fails at some point, and it is necessary to start over. See two-phase commit. to a previous operating environment In computing, an operating environment is the environment in which users run programs, whether in a command line interface, such as in MS-DOS or the Unix shell, or in a graphical user interface, such as in the Macintosh operating system. . "Cost-effective virtualization with quick provisioning capabilities is vital for today's VM implementations in the enterprise data center," said Bob Quinn, founder and chief technical officer of 3Leaf Systems. "Our customers now have the flexibility of choice for their hardware, as they scale their virtualized environments, allowing them to fully leverage existing resources. 3Leaf V-8000 Virtual I/O solution with PowerCockpit provisioning and server management software, seamlessly integrates into existing infrastructures while keeping costs down and providing data center resource optimization." About 3Leaf Systems 3Leaf Systems provides next-generation server virtualization (1) Running applications in separate, isolated partitions within a single server. The "virtual machine" method can run different operating systems simultaneously, whereas the "OS virtualization" method runs applications for only one operating system (see virtual machine and OS solutions to support both scale-up and scale-out virtual servers in enterprise data centers. Leveraging patented Virtual Compute Environment(TM) (VCE VCE Victorian Certificate of Education (State of Victoria, Australia) VCE Virginia Cooperative Extension VCE Volvo Construction Equipment VCE Venice, Italy - Marco Polo (Airport Code) ) technology, 3Leaf optimizes data center operations by increasing the utilization and availability of large-scale data center resources. The 3Leaf V-8000 virtualizes the network and storage I/O to enable organizations to implement mainframe-class capabilities at commodity server prices. 3Leaf Systems' customers comprise Fortune 500 companies, spanning multiple industries such as financial services The examples and perspective in this article or section may not represent a worldwide view of the subject.
