This conference will bring together experts from leading technology companies and Open Source projects so that they can share visions, experiences and technical knowledge to help advance the industry in its quest for interoperability.
This event reinforces the collaboration on interoperability and protocols between Open Source and non-Open Source companies and projects. The agenda includes technical and business insights from Microsoft, Red Hat, CENATIC, SerNet, Dell, Collabora, KDE, FSFE, RavenDB, Kolab Systems, LibreOffice, Igalia, BlueMind, Bitergia, Samba, OpenChange, Libelium, Griffin Brown Publishing, id law partners and Hibernating Rhinos.
To implement a desktop virtualization platform some minimum components at hardware level are necessary. The essential requirements are a server infrastructure, a network architecture, storage and client devices:
-Server Infrastructure. It consists of the necessary servers with enough processing and physical memory capacity for hosting the hypervisor layer, which will assign the necessary hardware resources to the virtual desktops.
-Network electronics. This will allow for interconnection between the different platform
components. Network architecture for a VDI platform can be very complex, so it’s crucial that these components are of the highest quality.
GNU Hurd 0.6 is currently available, the kernel the Free Software Foundation and the GNU project want to become an alternative to Unix and Linux.
It is a collection of servers that run on the Mach microkernel to implement, among others, file systems, network protocols, file access control… that are implemented by the Unix kernel or similar kernels, such as Linux.
GNU Hurd runs on 32-bit x86 machines, but the developers working in this project say that a version running on 64-bit x8 (x86_64) machines is in progress.
The innovations of this new version include the cleaning of the code and progress in the integration with the microkernel GNU Match.
