VMware ESXi Hypervisor Available Free

VMware's next-generation OS-independent hypervisor, VMware ESXi, is now available for free

VMware ESXi is built on the same proven technology as VMware ESX, so it's powerful enough to run even the most resource intensive applications and trusted enough for your critical deployments.

VMware ESXi is available free of charge and delivers:

• Simple Set Up
• Unmatched Reliability
• High Performance and High Consolidation Ratios
• Simplified Management

At a fraction of the size of a general purpose operating system, the 32-MB footprint of VMware ESXi sets a new bar for security due to a smaller 'attack surface'. This small footprint and hardware-like reliability also enables VMware ESXi to be built directly into industry standard x86 servers. Now you can deploy diskless servers attached to shared storage, removing the most failure prone server component, while decreasing power and cooling requirements.

VMware ESXi works with standards-based monitoring protocols and is easily managed one-to-one with the VMware Infrastructure Client. When licensed within a VMware Infrastructure edition, VMware ESXi supports VMware VirtualCenter and the VMware Infrastructure API for integration with third-party software solutions.
