Parallels was spotted at WWDC this week giving a demo of a new product. Called Parallels Server for Mac, it is essentially virtualization software for server use. The team showed SuSe Enterprise, Windows 2003, Windows XP, Solaris 10 and FreeBSD 5 happily coexisting on a single XServe.
However, when asked why Mac OS X server was not running in a virtual machine, Ben Rudolph, director of Corporate Communications at Parallels stated that Apple requires its operating systems to run on physical Apple hardware. He further mentioned that “Apple has been a great partner to (them)” and they wouldn’t “want to jeopardize that relationship”.
Expect a beta build of Parallels Server in several months time.
