Winners were selected in nine categories from more than 100 exhibitors offering new products and technology innovations.
Designed specifically to optimize performance of VMware ESX Server environments, InovaWave’s VirtualOctane for ESX Server helps organizations overcome performance hurdles to increase the number of virtual machines possible per physical server and virtualize a greater percentage of their applications. Fully compatible with all products in the VMware Virtual Infrastructure 3 (VI3) Suite, VirtualOctane provides a powerful, yet easy-to-use complementary component for ESX Server environments. VirtualOctane leverages an intelligent and adaptive optimization engine to enable greater ROI through improved ESX Server resource utilization and virtualization of high-performance workloads, such as databases and messaging.
