Hello AMD community, and Happy Virtualization Ecosystems Month! We’re very excited to have been invited to take part in AMD’s celebration of all things “virtualization.” We’ve been technology partners for a long time and it’s great to have this relationship reflected in our blogs and social networking groups. You can see AMD blogging for Parallels here.

As you know, Advanced Micro Devices is all about developing the next generation of computing. Parallels leverages these continued advances in computing power in our innovative software. For instance, there are thousands of web hosters using our server virtualization software, Parallels Virtuozzo Containers, because it’s the most efficient method for virtualizing on a wide-scale. These hosters are now more fashionably called cloud providers; a market in which AMD and Parallels have been collaborating since, well… before “cloud computing” was cool.

Containers consume far fewer resources than other virtualization technologies, granting servers higher density and optimized performance: happy servers make for even happier IT professionals. The solutions we provide today wouldn’t be possible without working closely with top technology partners to take advantage of the latest innovations – without the right horsepower and processing architecture, virtualization would never achieve its full potential.

The success of recent industry events such as WebhostingDay 2009 and Parallels Summit 2009 has demonstrated the growing relevance of and interest in cloud computing. This is an exciting prospect for both AMD and Parallels with our long experience with the cloud; we look forward to helping customers evolve their IT infrastructure to be more powerful, easier to manage and – in a struggling global economy – very cost effective.

Here’s to continued success alongside our friends at AMD! Again, don’t forget to check out Margaret Lewis’ guest post at http://blogs.parallels.com/betweenthelines
