(InfoWorld) - IBM Corp. has opened the public beta program for the next version of its Informix database server and announced plans for a bundled Linux package for smaller businesses. The upgrade to IBM's Informix Dynamic Server (IDS) is code-named Cheetah. The final version is due out sometime later this year and will offer new features for application developers, better support for hierarchical data structures and improved query capabilities across multiple instances of the database, IBM announced Thursday. For now, customers and IBM partners can try out a beta version of the software by downloading it here . The company is working with Novell Inc. to offer the database in an "integrated, low-cost" package of hardware and software for small and medium-sized businesses. Due out this year, it will include Novell's Suse Linux Enterprise Server and an IBM xSeries 3105 server powered by Advanced Micro Devices Inc.'s Opteron 1000 Series processors, IBM said. Pricing and other details will be announced nearer to its release. IBM acquired Informix's database business in 2001 for about US$1 billion. Customers have praised the company for continuing to develop IDS and for not forcing them onto IBM's flagship DB2 databases. But some users have also been critical that IBM does little to market the software, pushing its DB2 brand instead. IBM said the development of Cheetah shows that IDS continues to be one of its key strategic products. The vendor's promising significant enhancements for application developers, to help get applications up and running quickly and port existing applications to IDS. Cheetah also supports the services-oriented architecture model for application integration, and comes with a new deployment wizard for minimizing the disk space required for a custom install, IBM said. The last major upgrade to IDS, version 10, came out two years ago, in March 2005. Â

IBM has added a new capability to its virtualization platform that will allow Linux applications to run on IBM&#39;s Unix servers, the company announced Tuesday.The &quot;Lx86&quot; capability, to be included in IBM&#39;s PowerVM virtualization software, allows x86-based Linux applications to run on IBM&#39;s System p and Power-based Unix systems without modification, according to IBM. The systems will automatically detect and run Linux-based binaries designed for x86 environments.&quot;Lx86 is a way to say, &#39;Whatever you have, it can run,&quot; said Scott Handy, vice president of marketing and strategy for IBM Power Systems.The capability will simplify the consolidation of Unix and Linux server sprawls, Handy said. Running Linux applications in the Unix environment can reduce the cost of server consolidation and energy consumption and increase asset utilization, he argued.Lx86 will be a useful tool for people looking to migrate from Linux systems to other IBM systems, IBM said. The company offers both Unix and Linux operating systems on its servers.The capability will be included in all editions of IBM&#39;s PowerVM platform, which it also renamed Tuesday from the Advanced Power Virtualization platform.The software now includes an Express edition targeted at SMBs. It allows customers to create up to three partitions on a server and control the use of processor cycles to get optimal performance. The Express edition will be shipped to customers soon, priced at $40 per core. PowerVM is also available in Standard and Enterprise editions.IBM also announced that it will update its i5/OS operating system with support for Power6 processors. The update, called V6R1, includes improved performance, storage and security features, according to IBM.The update supports IBM&#39;s Power6 EnergyScale technology for controlling energy use. The company also updated its Rational software tool set for the i5/OS, Handy said.The i5/OS V6R1, for IBM&#39;s System i servers, will ship in March. It will also work with the company&#39;s new BladeCenter H server chassis, Handy said.
