IBM Cloudburst, IBM WebSphere Cloudburst Appliances, and IBM WebSphere Application Server 7 Hypervisor Edition

The IBM Cloudburst is a fairly large server - looks like a highend mid-range server. If you do not want to run hypervisor on "general purpose" hardware, the IBM Cluadburst is where you want to go.

The IBM WebSphere Cloudburst Appliance is a thin box that looks like a DataPower appliance. It has WebSphere Applications server images and WAS topology patterns as well as system management tools. You can deploy these to IBM Cloudburst or virtualization ready servers (servers running hypervisor).

IBM WebSphere Application Server 7 Hypervisor Edition is the Websphere server that can be deployed and execute in a cloud.
