“I am uncomfortable betting my entire IT infrastructure on a single vendor.”

Interoperability

Interoperability agreements with Novell, Citrix (Xen), and Red Hat to

support Linux on Hyper-V

SVVP (Server Virtualization Validation Program) to certify non-Microsoft Hypervisors for Microsoft Support

System Center Operations Manager supports monitoring of non-Windows,

including Linux
