What would be ideal is for Oracle to synchronize the Xen implementation and functionality in Oracle VM on Linux with Solaris 11 on x86. That way customers have a choice on where to run the Xen hypervisor.
Either that, or take VirtualBox and elevate it to a type 1 hypervisor ontop of Solaris 11. That would be a major differentiator. I personally think the Xen market is flooded with Linux implementations. Then again, Red Hat is obviously pushing for KVM.. so I guess that's another option. *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Octave J.
