VMwareCEO: the operating system is "junk history"

Article Title: VMwareCEO: the operating system is "History junk ". Linux is a technology channel of the IT lab in China. Includes desktop applications, Linux system management, kernel research, embedded systems, open source, and other basic categories such as VMware CEO Bao Luo. Maritz hinted that bundling Hyper-V virtual software in Windows won't give Microsoft an advantage.

Maritz discussed a new data center-Oriented Operating System in a speech on Tuesday. In his speech, he also called the traditional operating system "historical garbage ".

In an opening speech at the VMworld conference, Maritz elaborated on a plan for VMware, provides a "virtual datacenter operating system" (VDC-OS) that enables more efficient and flexible management of server applications ). The VDC-OS is designed to extend the use of virtual technology from servers to other hardware in the data center-such as network switches and storage devices.

With VDC-OS, the IT Department was able to easily migrate Application Software loads to new hardware when additional processing capabilities were needed and quickly build a new environment for running application software, he said. VDC-OS will create an "Internal cloud computing environment" for the data center ".

Most products in vdc OS do not exist currently. VMware announced that the company will launch these products next year, including vNetworks for managing vswitches and vStorage for virtual storage devices.

Maritz did not mention Microsoft in an hour's speech, but he said that bundling Virtual Technology in Windows would not give Microsoft an advantage. He said that the traditional operating system is disappointing. It applies Phoenix to the data center environment.

When asked whether VMware is developing its own operating system, Maritz replied that the answer to this question is certainly no. It depends on your understanding of the operating system. In a sense, the vdc OS is the operating system. As with traditional operating systems, vdc OS makes applications independent of the infrastructure. However, vdc OS is not a traditional operating system. "We can develop virtual machine management programs into a traditional operating system. We can do this in the future, but we will not do this currently," Maritz said ."
