好消息！Canonical公司正式宣布──Ubuntu JeOS 7.10發布了！

是不是有點懵了？什麼是Ubuntu JeOS 7.10？怎麼突然冒出這個發行版？還是官方的？

別急，聽我慢慢介紹：

——————

Ubuntu JeOS 7.10，JeOS，即──Just enough Operation System（剛剛好的系統），發音同：Juice，是一個高度精簡的、專門面向虛擬化應用的發行版。

短短一句話，大家應該都明白是怎麼回事了吧？

隨著虛擬化技術應用的越來越廣泛，Ubuntu抓住這個機遇，適時推出JeOS，真是生的逢時啊。

在虛擬化應用時，人們常常會自己去定制一個足夠精簡又高效的系統。而現在Ubuntu JeOS已經做好了這一切，除了非常精簡以外，還為VMware等虛擬機進行了優化。

目前為止，Ubuntu JeOS 7.10只有For x86（32位）系統的鏡像，可以在下面的地址下載，只有151MB！還不快去下載研究研究~

VMWORLD/SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. – September 11, 2007 – Canonical Ltd., the commercial sponsor of Ubuntu, today announced the availability of its Ubuntu JeOS (Just Enough Operating System) edition.

Ubuntu JeOS (pronounced "Juice") is an efficient variant of the popular desktop and server operating system, configured specifically for virtual appliances.

"The efficiencies inherent in an operating system that is built for a virtualised world mean that ISVs looking to deploy their applications in this lucrative and growing market have an obvious deployment target in the Ubuntu JeOS Edition," said Stephen O'Grady, analyst at RedMonk. "As the delivery platforms and economics of licensing continue to change, the flexibility and reach of the Ubuntu operating system make it an increasingly popular choice for far sighted ISVs."

ISVs looking to develop virtual appliances will have a compelling platform in Ubuntu JeOS, an OS optimised for virtualisation that greatly reduces the complexity and maintenance overhead normally associated with general purpose operating systems. Ubuntu JeOS Edition has been tuned to take advantage of key performance technologies of the latest virtualisation products from VMware. This combination of reduced size and optimized performance ensures that Ubuntu JeOS Edition delivers a highly efficient use of server resources in large virtual deployments.

"Canonical has produced a robust virtualised OS core in the Ubuntu JeOS Edition that is optimized for virtual appliances," said Dan Chu, vice president of emerging products and markets at VMware. "Virtual Appliances are fundamentally changing how software is developed and deployed, with ISVs now including a thin and highly optimized OS along with their application in a ready-to-run virtual machine. We are excited that Canonical is providing Ubuntu JeOS for vendors interested in building VMware virtual appliances."

Business Objects today unveiled a virtual appliance based on Ubuntu JeOS that is being demonstrated at VMworld.

"Ubuntu fits naturally into the place where computing is happening today," said Mark Shuttleworth, founder of the Ubuntu Project. "Virtualisation is the key driver of data center restructuring at present, and Ubuntu's popularity with developers makes it an excellent choice for the next generation of virtualized environments. We have worked with VMware to deliver a version of Ubuntu that complements its exceptional virtualisation capabilities, providing a solution for the ISVs building virtual appliances and for the enterprises planning to deploy them."
