RED  HAT  ENTERPRISE  VIRTUALIZATION    

MARKET  SUMMARY    

VIRTUALIZATION  OF  x86  WORKLOADS  APPROACHING  50%  

 Installed  base  is  expected  to  grow  five-­‐fold  from  2010  -­‐>  2015  

YOU  HAVE  A  CHOICE  IN  VIRTUALIZATION  

“Don’t  just  find  a  vendor,  find  a  solu3on;  42%  of  organizaTons  use  mulTple  hypervisors  to  maximize  features  &  minimize  cost”    —  InfoTech  Research  Group,  July  2011  

“38  percent  of  companies  using  virtualiza3on  for  tradi3onal  workloads  say  they  are  planning  to  change  their  hypervisor  during  the  next  year.”    —  Virtualiza3on  Market  faces  shake-­‐up,    The  Register,  November  2011    Source:  Veeam  Sobware  –  V-­‐index.com  

“If  I  were  VMware,  I  wouldn’t  worry  most  about  Microsob,  with  its  tendency  to  subsume  low-­‐end,  small  business  markets  by  including  everything  in  the  Windows  opera3ng  system.  That's  so  1990s.  Rather,  I'd  worry  that  Red  Hat  and  KVM  already  have  a  foot  in  the  cloud.”    —  VMware  Should  Worry  More  About  Red  Hat,  Informa3onWeek,  September  2011

SELinux to the

Rescue

SELinux  is  all  about  labeling  

Processes  get  labels  

Virtual  machines  with  kvm  are  processes!!!  

Files/Devices  Get  Labels  

Virtual  images  are  stored  on  files/devices!!!!  

Rules  control  how  Process  Labels  Interact  with  Process/File  Labels.  

Kernel  Enforces  these  Rules.
