The open source Xen project has announced availability of Xen 3.3 engine, the latest version of the open source hypervisor. The product of a distributed development effort by senior engineers from more than 50 leading hardware, software, and security vendors, Xen 3.3 includes enhancements that further advance its position as a fast, scalable, secure virtualization engine for the industry's broadest range of server and PC chipsets, from super computers to PDAs.
Novell is a big contributor to the Xen project and will be including Xen updates in all future versions of SUSE Linux Enterprise. Novell continues to be the first Linux vendor to ship the latest releases of Xen, most recently with Xen 3.2 in SUSE Linux Enterprise 10 SP2.
