Differences between Microsoft Hyper-V and VMware ESXi

Differences between Microsoft Hyper-V and VMware ESXi

If we have a look at how Microsoft Hyper-V and VMware ESXi work, we see many differences in terms of architecture. However, most virtualization administrators aren’t aware of these differences. In fact, many of them don’t really know how Hyper-V hypervisor works on the host operating system.

A very common misunderstanding about Microsoft Hyper-V is that since Windows operating system is required to install Hyper-V, it operates on the host OS instead of directly on the hardwar

Graphic station environments virtualization I

Work station environments, habitually used by engineers and graphic designers, can be distinguished from the ones used by other users because they are more complicated to manage and maintain, they result in greater use of resources, use a more specific hardware and data security is more critical.

Virtualizing this type of work stations becomes a complicated task since it is necessary to analyze a variety of platforms, connection protocols, architecture designs and specific hardware in order to adopt the ideal solution.

While in a standard virtual desktop environment we recommend performing a concept test, for the virtualization of graphic stations or work stations it is practically essential to be able to commission the deployed platform with full guarantees.

Upcoming trends in virtualization

Upcoming trends in virtualization

Talking about predictions or future trends regarding virtualization and cloud computing may be a bit risky, since it is a sector in constant motion and where changes take place in a fast and unpredictable way. A clear example is the adoption of containers with virtual machines, something unexpected a few years ago and that is already established as a base technology.

Coinciding with the start of the new year, some experts of the industry’s major companies like VMware, CA technologies or Bromium share their vision on what could bring us this new year in virtualization and cloud computing. You can read their views in this article: 2015 Virtualization Predictions

Virtual desktops & lifecycle management III

In this post we continue our analysis on VDI adoption and lifecycle management of virtual desktops. In previous articles we discussed about the planning and acquisition phases, and today we talk about the deployment of the new fleet of desktops

Desktop virtualization offers a great advantage when managing computers, because with the VDI management software and from a single administration point, you can complete almost all the tasks that allow you to deploy the virtual desktops:
