IS WIMAX REALLY JUST AROUND THE CORNER?

With excitement building about WiMAX, you might be surprised
that, technically, no real WiMAX products are available yet.
That is, none that meet the 802.16 profile as defined by the
WiMAX Forum and certified compatible by the Forum's appointed
lab in Spain. Will there be products? Click here for more:

Today's focus: Parallels enters crowded virtualization software
space

By Deni Connor

Start-up Parallels recently introduced virtualization software
for workstations and announced plans to expand into server-based
virtualization.

Parallels joins an already crowded space that consists of
virtualization tools from VMware, Microsoft, SWsoft, plus the
open source Xen virtual machine monitor, which XenSource has
just begun marketing. Parallels says it differs from these other
implementations because its Parallels Workstation product is
priced at $100 per physical workstation. By contrast, VMware's
GSX Workstation is priced at $189.

Parallels Workstation is in beta test now. It runs on Windows or
Linux workstations and can host a variety of guest operating
systems, including Linux, Windows, MS-DOS, OS/2, eComStation and
FreeBSD. Future versions of Parallels Workstation will support
NetWare, Solaris and Mac OS X.

Parallels Workstation is most similar to VMware's GSX
Workstation <http://www.networkworld.com/nlservers2068>, which
is used primarily for application development and testing.
Parallels claims that its software is so easy to use that it
could be installed on an end-user's desktop to allow them to run
multiple operating systems.

With Parallels Workstation, there is no limit to the number of
virtual machines that can exist on a physical box.

Version 2 of the workstation product, along with the Parallels
Server product due in early 2006, will support dual-core
processor technology. Intel's Vanderpool virtualization
technology will be supported in Parallels Server as well as in
Version 3 of the workstation product, also due in early 2006.

"Parallels Server is very similar to Parallels Workstation - it
is an emulation-based package," says Ben Rudolph, marketing
manager for Parallels. "Enterprise Server has its own
self-contained operating system that sits directly on the
hardware in between the hardware and the operating system that
can dynamically pool and allocate resources to the virtual
servers."

The company also expects to release Parallel Enterprise Server
in mid-2006. "Enterprise server is targeted more at the
enterprise-sized businesses than Parallels Server, which has
some home applications," Rudolph says.

Parallels was founded in 2001 and is located in Herndon, Va. The
company is privately funded.

Interested users can download the Parallels Workstation beta
software from the Parallels Web site
