Continuing its momentum and leadership in virtualization technology, Advanced Micro Devices today released the first video and images demonstrating live migration across three generations of AMD processors on VMware ESX 3.5, including the Six-Core AMD Opteron processor code-named Istanbul. Live Migration of virtual machines across physical servers is key to providing superior flexibility for managing todays data centers.

The AMD ecosystem of hardware and software partners like Microsoft, Sun and VMware illustrates a strong confidence in the advanced virtualization capabilities AMD-V offers, said Margaret Lewis, director, Commercial Solutions, AMD. Enabled in part by RVI, Live Migration across our 65-nm and 45-nm Quad-Core and upcoming Six-Core AMD Opteron processors provides further evidence of the flexibility of AMD-V technology for data center customers upgrading their systems.
