VMware has cozied up with ASUS, Gigabyte, Inventec and Tyan to get more customers for its brand of virtualization by certifying the ODMs’ one-, two- and four-socket servers as well as their blade servers. It’s already got a deal with Supermicro.

The vendors are certifying their systems for the VMware ESX and Infrastructure 3-upgradeable ESXi hypervisor; certified systems expected to be available in Q3.

It’s supposed to make adoption easier for resellers and get VMware into SMBs.
