It was just a matter of time for those familiar with Red Hat acquisitions and their long history of walking the open source way. The right time has now come for those who want to try RHEV and see what it is like, without engaging in a proof of concept project with Red Hat’s sales team with oVirt. The project has been seeded with assets from Red Hat by open sourcing it’s virtualization management software (RHEV), and from partners, customers, and competitors to build an open virtualization community to enable the growth and adoption of open virtualization solutions. oVirt will be launched with a workshop November 1st – 3rd so watch out.
