# 基金会致信

* 原文：[Letter From the Foundation](https://freebsdfoundation.org/our-work/journal/browser-based-edition/virtualization/letter-from-the-foundation/)
* 作者：**FreeBSD 期刊编辑委员会**

我们已度过创刊第一年的中点，FreeBSD 期刊进展良好。订阅量快速增长，为此我们要感谢那些加入我们、共同打造一本世界级 FreeBSD 杂志的读者和作者。

自服务器耗尽兆赫兹却继续萌生更多核心以来，虚拟化一直是个热门话题。在第四期中，我们汇集了一组文章，展示 FreeBSD 在虚拟化环境中的应用以及它作为虚拟化技术的应用。Colin Percival 带我们了解 EC2（亚马逊的云服务）上的 FreeBSD；Roger Pau Monné 讨论 FreeBSD 和 Xen。

FreeBSD 也拥有自己的虚拟化技术——bhyve，最初在 NetApp 开发，随后开源并直接集成到 FreeBSD 中。John Baldwin 讲解如何在 bhyve 中搭建和使用你自己的 FreeBSD 虚拟实例。

虚拟化主题之外，Brendan Gregg 撰文介绍 USE 方法——一种运用各种工具发现性能问题的方法。USE 代表“利用率、饱和度和错误”（Utilization, Saturation, and Errors）。

我们向 Thomas Abthorpe 道别并致以谢意——他撰写了前三期 Ports Report 专栏。我们也欢迎最新加入的专栏作者 Frederic Culot，他将接手同一专栏。同时，请不要错过我们的第一篇会议报告——由 Michael Dexter 撰写的 BSDCan 报道。

我们乐于考虑新的专栏和你的文章创意。如果你有写作意向，请将标题和摘要，甚至一段说明你想法的文字发送至 <editor@freeBSDJournal.com>。现在，我们都开始为第五期忙碌起来。

致以诚挚问候，

FreeBSD 期刊编辑委员会

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://freebsd-journal-cn.bsdcn.org/20140708-xu-ni-hua/letter-from-the-foundation.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
