In reading the two documents posted in Part 2, I discovered even more interesting work that was done previously. I think we are now getting close to the earliest research from which the open source Xen project was created. For your reading pleasure: * Isolation of Shared Network Resources in XenoServers
As stated earlier in my first History of Xen – Architecture post, I am on the active trail of the history of Xen and will continue to publish documents and information to help give the community a complete history of the project from idea to development to open source solution. I
For those of you writing documents that are intended to be from the Xen.org community, I have created a new About Xen.org treatment for you to leverage. The following text is currently proposed: About Xen.org. Xen.org is the home of the open source Xen® hypervisor, a
The Xen.org community will have a booth (#210) at the joint LinuxWorld / Next Generation Data Center event held in San Francisco, August 5- 7 at the Moscone Center. The booth will be staffed by myself as well as community members with spare time during the event. If you
Being somewhat new to the Xen community, just my third month in the community, I want to make every effort I can to meet with people who are directly or indirectly supporting the Xen initiative. I will be posting my travel schedule on this blog to allow members the opportunity
Xen Community: As part of the Xen Summit at USENIX Technical Conference in Boston this June, we have the opportunity to run a full day Xen training session (xen-summit-training-overview.txt). I am looking for one or two volunteers who would like to organize and run this full day training sessions.
Yesterday I just finished the migration of all physical servers to the virtualized ones. Now We (as company) have 7 servers (2 win2k3 and 5 linux) into just one. And yes, we are the first Chilean enterprise using virtualization with Xen in our data center. That makes me really happy,
OK, maybe the title of this post is a slight exaggeration but it’s good to have goals for the future! It’s a goal which many would argue will be unreachable without the genesis of Strong AI. It’s also a goal where we can achieve very useful results
When I started the Xen Blog site, I reached out to several Xen hosting companies and ended up using Slicehost. I wanted to acknowledge one of the other companies that responded to my request but was not selected. Note, the selection of Slicehost was not a decision made on technology
As I continue to learn more about Xen, I find it interesting to read old documents that show the transformation of Xen from a research project at Cambridge University to the current leading open source hypervisor technology. A great link form Cambridge University is available with a collection of documents
Ian Pratt spoke yesterday at the 2008 Free and Open Source Software Developers’ European Meeting. You can read his pre-event interview here and get his slides from the presentation here. I will be adding the link to this posting when Ian’s presentation video is posted on the FOSDEM site.
As the title said, I’ll use this post to introduce myself to the Xen Community Blog: I’m a 25 years old networking engineer student (just one semester left!) and I’m also a Linux geek. I’m from Chile, and I met Xen about a year ago. Since
