VMLogix, Inc., a leading provider of virtual lab automation solutions that help software companies and IT organizations leverage virtualization to consolidate lab infrastructure and automate build and test processes, has announced VMLogix LabManager 3.6 with support for Microsoft Windows Server 2008 Hyper-V. VMLogix LabManager is hypervisor agnostic and with the introduction of Hyper-V now supports all standard server virtualization platforms, enabling users to leverage their existing infrastructure and effectively centralize lab management and operations.
"As adoption of virtualization platforms from vendors other than VMware grows, vendor-agnostic products like VMLogix LabManager will meet the market need by providing customers with choice, platform interoperability, and superior performance," says Sameer Dholakia, CEO of VMLogix. "We look forward to working with our customers using this new technology and helping them prepare multi-tier applications for new Hyper-V enabled production environments."
VMLogix LabManager is a best-in-class solution that enables software companies, SMBs, and enterprise IT organizations to leverage virtualization to consolidate and automate lab IT infrastructure in order to deliver and maintain software applications more quickly, cost-effectively, and reliably, the company says. VMLogix LabManager allows development, test, and support teams to build, snapshot, share and deploy production-like environments on-demand across Citrix, Microsoft and VMware virtualization platforms. Using comprehensive automation capabilities, advanced team management and seamless integrations with leading build and test management solutions from IBM and HP, companies can dramatically reduce the manual effort, time, and IT resources required to develop and maintain higher quality software applications.
"Windows Server 2008 Hyper-V provides customers a high-performance server virtualization solution that includes a familiar and easy to use experience along with attractive economics related to its implementation and maintenance," says Mike Schutz, director of server virtualization, Windows Server division at Microsoft Corp. "Microsoft virtualization technologies and development tools play a key role in lab environments, and we are pleased that VMLogix is providing our mutual customers with a compelling option for virtual lab automation."
VMLogix LabManager 3.6 is available now and includes the beta version of support for the Microsoft Hyper-V platform. The product will be generally available in September. For more information, visit www.vmlogix.com/microsoft or contact
