Welcome

If you're currently riding the virtualisation wave or just keen to see what the latest is in the world of virtualisation then you're in the right place - welcome!

Xtravirt is an innovative company with experts dedicated to VMware virtualisation technologies and solutions.

We really enjoy working with VMware ESX, and found like many people, a bit of a divide between those who are at one with their *nix shell and others who are more in tune with the Windows environment.  We have a range of content which will suit both sides of the spectrum.  We actively and freely produce:

VMware Hot Tips, Webcasts, Downloadable Utilities, White papers and more.

We hope you find us interesting and informative.
