The companies reminded they share a long history of technology collaboration, and said that this move by the OSRC represents a deeper commitment on the part of both companies to make sure that respective technologies work together to deliver customers the highest performance possible.

Earl Stahl, VP of software development at AMD noted in a statement, “We know that Solaris is a key enterprise-class OS for mission critical applications while the xVM family of products addresses desktop and server virtualization for the enterprise and data center with high availability, scalability, performance and management.
