On display is Supermicro's 5017P-TLN4F (i7) embedded server running Wind River Hypervisor for embedded devices. The Wind River Hypervisor delivers a safe and secure partitioning solution that consolidates real-time and general purpose workloads running on multiple operating systems (such as VxWorks combined with Windows 7 or Wind River Linux). The virtualization layer delivers deterministic, real-time performance to the factory floor applications, while simultaneously running business applications in a safe and secure environment.

"By delivering virtualization, Wind River Hypervisor helps embedded developers achieve greater levels of device functionality on a wide variety of form factors," said Mark Hermeling, product line manager for virtualization at Wind River. "Wind River Hypervisor running on Supermicro's 5017P-TLN4F embedded server can consolidate real-time and general purpose workloads on operating systems such as VxWorks, Linux and Windows, while guarding safety and security. Together with Supermicro, we can provide our customers with the capability to reduce cost, save space, weight and power and deliver innovative new solutions that combine real-time control and business applications in a single box."

Also on display is Supermicro's next generation server 5017P-TF (i5) running Windows Storage Server 2008 R2 Essentials. This embedded solution demo is ideal for SMB and branch offices, allowing data to be secured and readily available to a number of remote and desk users avoiding network bandwidth or access delays.
