Open Kernel Labs Nominated for SYS-CON's "Virtualization Journal Readers' Choice Awards"

OKL4 Nominated for "Best Application Virtualization"

OKL4 is a high-performance system software platform, built using cutting-edge microkernel technology, which provides Trustworthy Virtualization and Secure Decomposition capability for embedded systems. OKL4 supports system virtualization, secure execution of components in an execution environment with a minimal trusted computing base, and fault isolation within complex systems using lightweight protected components. Used alone or as a complement to full-featured operating systems, OKL4 enables development teams to deliver systems that are more trustworthy in less time and at lower cost.

Open Kernel Labs OKL4 provides developers with the technologies and tools needed to build and deploy innovative, high-performance, and secure intelligent devices.

SYS-CON’s Virtualization Journal’s “Readers’ Choice Awards”
SYS-CON's Virtualization Journal announced today its first annual Virtualization Readers' Choice Awards. SYS-CON's Readers' Choice Awards, also known as the "Oscars of the Software Industry" has been one of the most prestigious industry award programs for more than a decade. This year's virtualization awards will be given in 17 categories and award-winning products and services will be selected by Virtualization Journal readers.

Virtualization takes the cost and complexity out of IT, and can even help us reduce the CO2 footprint. IDC has stated that the virtualization services market alone is going to reach $11.7 billion by 2011 and in general this technology, which has been around for a good number of years, seems suddenly to be on everyone's mind.

In short, Virtualization is fast becoming a key requirement for every server in the data center, enabling increased workloads in server consolidation projects, efficient software development and testing, resource management for dynamic data centers, application re-hosting and compatibility, and high-availability partitions.

The tipping point, though - as anticipated by industry experts already back in 2005 - seems to be coming in 2008.
