The product is also the first ever to enable running Mac OS X Server, in a virtual machine. With Parallels Server, Mac OS X Server administrators will be able to run important, industry-standard, workloads such as SQL Server and Exchange Server at the same time as their Mac OS X Server applications.

SWsoft’s Parallels Server is the first server virtualization software solution on Intel-based Apple hardware supporting Mac OS X Server, including Apple’s new Xserve and Mac Pro lines, which were announced yesterday. By fully optimizing for hardware-enabled virtualization technologies like Intel VT-d, Parallels Server will not only deliver high levels of performance and reliability but also allows users to directly assign hardware resources such as a second graphics or network card to a virtual machine. In addition, Parallels Server is the first to offer experimental support for Intel second-generation virtualization technology, Intel Virtualization Technology for Directed I/O (Intel VT-d).
It is an ideal server consolidation tool that can substantially reduce hardware expenditures and operating costs, and simplify back-end IT management. Parallels Server is the first server virtualization product to be designed uniquely for small and medium businesses and departments of large enterprises, which require solutions with less complexity in management and deployment. Customers running Parallels Server on Apple hardware also have the industry-first option of running Mac OS X Server in a virtual machine. The software supports any combination of more than 50 different guest operating systems including Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2008 “Longhorn”, Red Hat Linux, SUSE Enterprise Linux, and Sun Solaris simultaneously in isolated virtual machines. Parallels Server is the only virtualization product of any kind to afford users the flexibility to choose their implementation at install.
Users can choose to load Parallels Server in lightweight hypervisor mode or bare-metal mode at installation.
Parallels Server can be installed using the Parallels lightweight hypervisor, in which virtual machines run in tandem with a primary operating system, or “bare metal,” in which virtual machines run independently and are not dependent on a host operating system to function properly. Parallels Server also runs on any x86 or 64-bit Windows or Linux-based server. Parallels Server is the first virtualization solution designed to run on Apple hardware, including Mac Pros and Xserves, and the first to run multiple copies of Mac OS X Server v10.5 Leopard on a single Apple computer. SWsoft (soon to be renamed Parallels) today announced the release of the beta version of Parallels Server, the company’s hypervisor-powered server virtualization solution.
