Michael wrote his first jail(8) management system in 2005 and has since operated NetBSD/Xen in production and was the first community user of bhyve, the FreeBSD hypervisor introduced with FreeBSD 10.0. bhyve is a modern, emulation-free hypervisor that relies on the Extended Page Table feature found in modern Intel and AMD CPUs. bhyve provides bare-metal performance for Unix virtual machines and an in some cases will in fact provide better than bare-metal performance.</p> <p>FreeBSD Xen Dom0 support has been many years in the making but is beginning to see the light of day. Michael is working with Xen developer Roger Pau Monné and aims to have a real-world report on the status of this unique effort.</p> <p>Combined, these technologies are establishing FreeBSD as an emerging first class virtualization platform with an increasing adoption by "cloud" service providers.</p> <p>Many will head to the Lucky Lab at 915 SE Hawthorne Blvd. after the meeting.</p> <p>Rideshares Available</p> <p>PLUG Page with information about all PLUG events: <a href="http://pdxlinux.org/">http://pdxlinux.org/</a> Follow PLUG on Twitter: <a href="http://twitter.com/pdxlinux">http://twitter.com/pdxlinux</a></p> <p>PLUG is open to everyone and does not tolerate abusive behavior on its mailing lists or at its meetings.</p> </div> <h3>Links</h3> <ul> <li><a class="url u-url" href="http://pdxlinux.org">Website</a></li> </ul> </div>
