VMware unveils vCloud for NFV with integrated OpenStack

VMware debuted VMware vCloud for NFV, an integrated Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) platform that will combine VMware’s production-proven virtualized compute, networking, storage and management solutions with integrated OpenStack support.

With support for more than 40 different virtual network functions (VNFs) from more than 30 vendors, VMware vCloud for NFV is the only platform available today that runs different VNFs from different vendors side by side on the same unified platform for the cloud.

With vCloud for NFV, communication service providers (CSPs) can deploy NFV solutions into production on a proven platform to achieve faster time to market for new and differentiated services while driving sustainable cost reductions.

Differences between Thin & Zero Clients for VDI

Differences between Thin & Zero Clients for VDI

Thin and Zero Clients are usually associated with desktop virtualization (VDI) and Host desktop environments (DaaS), but it is important to distinguish their differential features.

Thin Client devices are traditionally end point devices that run on Linux or Windows Embedded (WES7/WE8) and to a lesser extent in Windows CE. Windows CE is deployed much less frequently due to the lack of connection brokers from major providers and to limited peripheral support.
