"There are other software-based acceleration products that could run on virtualized servers, but they weren't created with virtualization in mind or certified to work with VMware as aCelera was."
Rob Whiteley, Forrester Research Analyst



As a worldwide leader in enterprise software solutions, Microsoft has entered the virtualization marketplace with its Hyper-V product. Hyper-V is Microsoft’s own hypervisor technology, which runs as part of its latest server operating system, Windows Server 2008. In addition, Microsoft has enhanced its System Center Virtual Machine Manager specifically to take advantage of the capabilities of Hyper-V.
Certeon's aCelera is supported within Hyper-V virtual machines to accelerate virtualized application environments in both data centers and remote branch offices. aCelera software runs on industry standard servers and is provisioned using Microsoft System Center Virtual Machine Manager. aCelera reduces the response time of Microsoft applications such as Office System and MOSS over the WAN by 95%.
The diagram below illustrates how aCelera Virtual Appliance software can be deployed throughout a distributed Microsoft Hyper-V environment. The diagram also shows an aCelera physical appliance in a remote branch office.
