VMware Announces Agreements to Embed VMware ESX 3i Hypervisor Across Broad Lines of Servers from Dell, Fujitsu-Siemens, HP and IBM
Systems Providers Will Ship Servers Embedded with VMware in the Next 60 Days

Dell, Fujitsu Siemens Computers, HP and IBM servers with the VMware ESX 3i hypervisor embedded will also include easy access to an evaluation of the VI3 suite, which delivers a fully managed virtual datacenter. VMware’s complete solution for virtualizing servers, storage, networks, applications and desktops helps ensure IT services are delivered when and where needed, and optimized for cost and energy efficiency. VMware and its hardware partners will promote the evaluation, purchase and deployment of VI3 through collaborative sales, marketing and training programs.

The VMware ESX 3i hypervisor is based on core VMware virtualization technology in use by more than 100,000 customers. It is the industry’s smallest hypervisor (32MB), enabling high levels of security and reliability, and it is the only OS-independent virtualization platform. VMware ESX 3i delivers single-server consolidation with fast and easy deployment—the first virtual machine can operate within minutes of booting a server with pre-configured and optimized hardware configurations.
