Hitachi Provides Unique Server Virtualization System on Its Integrated Service Platform.Tokyo, Japan, July 24, 2006 - (JCN JCN Japan Corporate News JCN Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience JCN Journal of Cardiovascular Nursing JCN Journal of Christian Nursing JCN Job Control Number JCN Journal of Child Neurology JCN joint communications network (US DoD) ) - Hitachi has developed a hardware-based 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 system and will implement it on a new server module based on Intel's Itanium 2 Processor 9000 Series dual-core processors. Developed based on Hitachi's experience in virtualization technology See VT. See also virtualization. nurtured on mainframes, the server virtualization system is made available on BladeSymphony, the company's service platform that integrates blade servers A server architecture that houses multiple server modules ("blades") in a single chassis. It is widely used in datacenters to save space and improve system management. Either self-standing or rack mounted, the chassis provides the power supply, and each blade has its own CPU, memory and , storage units, networking equipment, operating systems Operating systems can be categorized by technology, ownership, licensing, working state, usage, and by many other characteristics. In practice, many of these groupings may overlap. and other system management software into a single package. The system, provided on the blade server unit of BladeSymphony, can divide resources on physical servers into multiple logical partitions, enabling the optimization of software licensing fees and operation costs and increasing efficiency in use of the resources. As a result, users can achieve a 30% reduction in total cost of ownership compared to conventional service platforms. The server virtualization system will be available starting on August 31.
