Adding to Windows Server 2008 Hyper-V, two additional products that support virtualization will launch September 8: System Center Virtual Machine Manager (SCVMM) 2008 and Microsoft Application Virtualization (formerly SoftGrid). The announcement was made at Worldwide Partner Conference (WPC) 2008.
Developers and ISVs are interested in these products from two points of view. First, it's important that their products run under Application Virtualization and Hyper-V so customers can deploy applications effectively. And second, to use them in development and testing efforts. You can build multiple versions of your code for both servers and clients, test deployment, and mange them within Virtual Machine Manager without having to dedicate individual computers for each end user or server.
System Center Virtual Machine Manager 2008
Virtual Machine Manager (VMM) 2008 supports managing Virtual Server 2005 R2, Windows Server 2008 Hyper-V, and VMware ESX from a single console. The latest version adds Performance and Resource Optimization (PRO), which dynamically tunes virtual infrastructure, simplified virtual host cluster support, and other improvements and enhancements.
