Abstract

This paper examines Virtualization Technologies which are popular in modern financial management systems. Many researchers and financial systems administrators have researched the techniques related to utilizing server computational resources. Currently there are many technologies for this purpose. These technologies include running multiple applications, and multiple operating systems on the same hardware, like: VMWARE, Linux-VServer, VirtualBox and Xen. These technologies try to solve the problem of resource allocation from two approaches: running multiple operating system instances on the same hardware and virtualizing the operating system environment. Our study presents an evaluation of scalability and performance of an operating system virtualization technology known as Solaris Containers. The main objective is to measure the influence of a security technology known as Solaris Trusted Extensions for securing financial management software.
