VMware ESX Server 3.5 and 3i Details
As usual, Alessandro Perilli is the first to report something VMware related. This time it's details regarding the upcoming VMware ESX Server 3.5 release, as well as some interesting news regarding the new 3i product.
VMware Infrastructure 3.5 and ESX Server 3i to be available since December 2007 with new prices and editions has the details.
Interesting to note that 3i will be aggressively priced at $500 and that it will support SATA drives, which makes it a perfect entry level product for the SMB marked just getting into virtualization.
Another good move is the ability to manage VMware Server 2.0 installs from the new Virtual Infrastructure client. All in all good stuff, and it's evident that VMware is gearing up now after the IPO, the Citrix acquisition of XenSource and the upcoming threat from Microsoft.
Interesting times for all us virtualization nuts!
