Hello and welcome to the Microsoft virtual machine team’s blog! On Monday the 22nd, as part of the WinHEC conference, we announced the next steps in our virtualization strategy and outlined our roadmap of products. As we march towards release, we are starting a team blog to discuss machine virtualization plans at Microsoft in more detail. As the Product Unit Manager for the team, I’ve been asked to provide the first post for the team and kick off the blog. Welcome! In future posts I plan to talk more about Microsoft’s strategy in this space, industry efforts, opportunities for our partners, what the technology is, what it can do for customers, but for the first installment I wanted to focus on the team and the technology they are building. On Monday we announced Windows Server virtualization, which was codenamed “Viridian”. This will be the first release of the Windows hypervisor-based design and represents the hard work of a very talented and dedicated group of people. As part of Bill Gates opening keynote at WinHEC we publicly demoed Windows Server virtualization with the hypervisor for the first time. Jeff Woolsey and Mike Sterling did an outstanding job showing just a fraction of the amazing capabilities we have in the works. If you didn’t catch the demo this morning, you can watch the webcast here. Check it out here.
