REDWOOD CITY, Calif. November 27, 2006 – Enigmatec Corporation, a leader in policy-based automation for on-demand virtual and physical IT environments, today announced that it has joined the XenSource Partner Program as a charter ISV member. The partnership enables Enigmatec to extend its management capabilities for virtual environments to include support for XenEnterprise™, the multi-OS virtualization solution for the enterprise market that offers all of the performance advantages of the open source Xen™ 3.0 hypervisor.

Enigmatec delivers industry-leading automation software solutions for managing IT environments through its award-winning flagship platform – the Execution Management System (EMS™). Built on EMS, Enigmatec’s Virtual Environment Automation Pack (V-Pack) automates the entire virtual image lifecycle, including development/test and production. V-Pack enables distributed development/test teams to leverage large virtual machine environments in a consistent model that combines self service flexibility with strong administrative controls. V-Pack also enables IT operations teams to more efficiently deploy, maintain and manage production business applications deployed in virtual machines. This results in reduced operational costs, improved development/test team efficiency and faster new product time-to-market.

Enigmatec customers benefit from faster set-up and tear-down of virtual servers, improved administrator command and control (virtual machine aging, expiration, mode, storage and availability management), policy based optimization of shared virtual server resources, and platform independence.

“Enigmatec’s global customers want to expand their use of virtualization to all aspects of their IT infrastructures, to enable highly dynamic, self-service, utility computing environments for their internal users as well as customers,” says Duncan Johnston-Watt, chief technology officer at Enigmatec. “Enigmatec are committed to supporting best-of-breed virtualization solutions and to the open source vision of XenSource.”

“Our partnership with Enigmatec builds on our vision to provide secure, manageable, high performance virtualization solutions to customers,” says Benn Schreiber, director of business development at XenSource.. “Our mutual customers will benefit from powerful automation plus high-performance virtualization for mission-critical business applications.”

Enigmatec will include support for Xensource in the next release of its Virtual Automation Pack in early 2007.
