7/17/2008 » NetworkWorld, Mitchell Ashley » Simon Crosby, Citrix CTO of Virtualization, presented his positive view of the future of the Xen hypervisor and the Citrix and Microsoft relationship during a two-part podcast hosted by Mitchell Ashley. Crosby indicated that, as Citrix products have done historically, Citrix virtualization offerings can enhance and extend Microsoft Hyper-V. Although there is no Xen code in Hyper-V, Microsoft used Xen as its reference model for the product. Microsoft also plans to recommend XenDesktop as its VDI solution. The podcast provided extensive coverage of Citrix XenServer and gave Crosby the opportunity to describe OEM deals with HP, Symantec, Stratus and Marathon.
