Is build upon VMware ESX Server with Virtual SMP and VirtualCenter with VMotion technology.

VMware, Inc., a virtual infrastructure software company, today launched VMware Infrastructure 3, the third generation of the infrastructure virtualization software suite that empowers enterprises and small businesses alike to optimize and manage their IT environments through virtualization.
 
The first generation of virtualization for industry-standard systems provided server partitioning through a hypervisor or hosted architecture. The second generation added management, capacity planning, a physical to virtual assistant and other tools for consolidating production servers. While the third generation, enables systems infrastructure capabilities for entire farms of servers and storage, independent of the application/operating system workloads and of the underlying hardware.

VMware Infrastructure 3 builds upon VMware ESX Server with Virtual SMP and VirtualCenter with VMotion technology. The suite is designed to deliver comprehensive virtualization, management, resource optimization, application availability and operational automation capabilities in an integrated offering, claims the company.

"VMware Infrastructure 3 transforms the role of hardware and software so that the business can truly think in terms of deploying services on a pool of continuously available hardware resources," said Diane Greene, President of VMware.
