Microsoft Hyper-V now available

Microsoft on Thursday released its Hyper-V virtualization technology, a day after it was widely reported the software was about to go into final release. People can now download Hyper-V for Windows Server 2008 on Microsoft's Web site . The technology allows people to run multiple OSes -- including Linux -- using one physical hardware running Windows Server, and is available slightly ahead of the latest schedule Microsoft had for the software.

Virtualization is becoming a key way companies are driving costs out of the datacenter by running OSes in virtual machines (VMs) rather than physically on servers. Microsoft aims to catch up to virtualization leader VMware in providing this technology for hardware systems not only running on Windows, but also Linux and other OSes. The company has said it aims to make virtualization a key part of its system-management strategy going forward, and is also expanding beyond hardware into desktop and application virtualization.
