Jul. 1, 2008 07:15 AM
SourceLabs announced that its Self-Support Suite now
supports enterprise-class virtual infrastructure solutions built on the Xen
hypervisor, an open-source virtualization software solution for Linux.
SourceLabs' Self-Support technology gives developers, corporate IT
professionals, and solution providers an on-demand way to reduce the complexity
of application development, deployment, troubleshooting and software
maintenance for open source technologies. Xen is the industry's de-facto,
industry-endorsed open source virtualization standard backed by enterprise
solution vendors.
"As data centers are moving toward a more dynamic
model, they are increasingly doing so using server virtualization technology
and Xen is the leading technology solution in the market today for running
virtualized IT environments," said Byron Sebastian, SourceLabs CEO and
Founder. "The SourceLabs Self-Support Suite gives developers the ability
to significantly drive down the costs of deploying and maintaining virtualized
data centers with technology that seamlessly and effortlessly harnesses the power
of Xen and other open source technologies."
SourceLabs Self-Support Suite drives down the cost of
troubleshooting and fixing software problems and in addition to identifying
potential security issues. The system identifies issues and ranks potential resolutions
from across a wide variety of projects in the open source development
ecosystem, offering resolutions to problems in just minutes. Indexing,
managing, and storing the data, SourceLabs uses advanced pattern matching and
predictive analysis algorithms to automate troubleshooting, reduces the time on
routine tasks and analyzes data to flag any potential problems before they can
impact systems or designs.
Xen open source virtualization software allows multiple
operating systems to run concurrently on the same physical server, allowing
customers to consolidate their current workloads onto a single server. As the
leading open source virtualization project, Xen serves as the foundation of
many commercial virtualization solutions and has been benchmarked as the
highest performing virtualization software available and is developed
collaboratively by engineers at Intel, AMD, Cisco, Citrix, Dell, Egenera, HP,
IBM, Mellanox, Network Appliance, Novell, Red Hat, SGI, Sun, Unisys, Veritas,
Voltaire, and more.
SourceLabs' supports all current and previous releases of
Xen technology, including auxiliary projects such as 'libvirt.' SourceLabs'
Self-Support Suite for Xen references solutions from Xen.org as well as
solutions from across multiple Linux distributions that ship with Xen
integration including Debian, RedHat, Fedora, Ubuntu, and OpenSuSE, as well as
the Linux Kernel mailing list and bug database, providing Xen users an
exhaustive resource for troubleshooting and analysis of their virtualization
platforms. SourceLabs' Self-Support Suite supports the most popular open source
Java and Linux technologies including Apache httpd, GCC, MySQL, Sendmail, and
the Linux Kernel among others.
