The latest release of the award-winning VMware ESX Server and VirtualCenter furthers your ability to pervasively deploy virtualization with full 64-bit OS support, non-disruptive upgrades and product localization.

VMware Infrastructure 3 delivers systems infrastructure capabilities for entire farms of servers and storage, independent of the application/operating system workloads and of the underlying hardware.


New features in VMware Infrastructure 3 include:
* Full support for 64-bit guest operating systems facilitates the adoption of high-performance 64-bit applications such as Oracle, IBM DB2, and MySQL, SAP R/3 and MS Exchange. This allows for simultaneous 64-bit and 32-bit operating system and application environments.
* Support for less expensive storage options like iSCSI SAN and NAS makes it easier and more cost effective to deploy VMware Infrastructure
* VMware DRS dynamically provisions, migrates and manages computing capacity across resource pools to changing business requirements
* VMware HA increases availability by automatically restarting virtual machines on live production servers in the event of server failure
* Support for enterprise workloads with virtual machines with up to 4 processors and 16 GB of physical memory

With the recent advances in VMware Infrastructure, there has never been a better time to virtualize your enterprise.
