Hyper9 Unleashes Virtualization Mobile Manager

Industry’s First Heterogeneous Hypervisor Mobile Management Tool Includes Up to Five VMs for Free and Special Introductory Pricing of $199

Austin, TX (June 9, 2009) – Hyper9, Inc. (www.hyper9.com), the leading provider of virtualization management solutions, released today a browser-based management and monitoring tool that allows Virtualization administrators to control their virtual infrastructures from a mobile device.

The Virtualization Mobile Manager (VMM), which was created by Andrew Kutz, a well-known developer in the VMware community, has been in beta for the last month, where hundreds of virtualization administrators have used the product in the field and provided positive feedback to Hyper9.

During the beta period, VMM demonstrated its ability to work with VMware Server 2, VMware Infrastructure 3, VMware vSphere 4, Microsoft Hyper-V, and Citrix XenServer 5. The application will also work with almost any mobile device, including the Apple iPhone, Blackberry, Google Android and Windows Mobile Devices.

"The fact that we are reaching out to a new product like vSphere 4 is significant," said Chris Ostertag, CEO and co-founder of Hyper9. "We are committed to creating cutting-edge products that are compatible with the latest technology."

VMM also offers the ability to monitor host and VM performance statistics (CPU, Memory), control VMs and take action on the go - start, stop, pause, reset and disable network - all of which were important features to the beta users.

Not surprisingly, the beta users unanimously informed Hyper9 that they would refer VMM to a friend or a colleague.

Hyper9 is doing its part to make VMM a compelling offering, by giving users the ability to manage up to five VMs for free as well as special introductory pricing of $199.00 for up to 1000 VMs.
