3. Sun VDI 3.1
Will Oracle continue Sun’s
virtualization strategy?
Yes, Oracle plans to continue Sun’s “desktop to datacenter virtualization”
strategy and integrate with Oracle’s virtualization products.
By unifying management across desktop virtualization, server virtualization,
storage virtualization, and network virtualization, Oracle and Sun provide
comprehensive, flexible, eco-efficient solutions to maximize utilization,
consolidate to reduce costs, increase productivity, and decrease
management complexity.
We expect to continue Sun’s desktop virtualization products:
VDI, Secure Global Desktop, Sun Ray, and VirtualBox.
