A brilliant software engineer, Founder of LxLabs.com, creator of HyperVM – optimized virtualization technology which runs on both Xen and OpenVZ, “Host In a Box” solution LxAdmin/Kloxo for Web hosting companies, server owners, resellers – K.T Ligesh commits suicide yesterday (8th June,2009) in his residence located in H.S.R Layout, Bangalore.

Yesterday night I was discussing with few of my colleagues about the recent vulnerability report logged against Kolxo solution and the fixes released to patch it. Sadly I get to read this news in  papers on returning home.  I recall interacting with this genius engineer prior to his product  launch and reporting few initial glitches that I had noticed. His products have made a very good name in industry in a short span of time. A very hardworking talent, free and opensource enthusiast. He tried his best to provide an optimized web hosting tool to hosting industry. Its a great loss to all of us.

He puts a question mark in-front of us and LxAdmin’s future is unknown. There are more questions to be answered while his soul rests in peace.
