With Microsoft's Hyper-V hypervisor virtual machine (VM) platform currently at $28 and my company's Xen hypervisor being free, the price of a hypervisor is heading toward free. If you look at HP's embedded hypervisor offering using our product, it is an incredible value proposition. That same product has more functionality than what made VMware their first $500 million of revenue. While VMware has had the benefit of market lead and brand presence, HP has knocked the value proposition out of the park. Is Citrix with XenServer an independent viable competitor against VMware? Yes, but that's a tough slog. Enabling companies to create alterative products like Citrix XenServer, HP ProLiant Select Edition greatly expands customer choice for a wide range of market needs.
