KVM is a hypervisor included in the main Linux kernel. It is really good as hypervisor, but like all hypervisors, a set of tools is needed to manage it. In this post we talk about one of them, oVirt, thanks to this article written by vMiss.net
oVirt is a set of Open Source management tools that runs on different Linux distributions. It has interesting enterprise features, such as high availability, load balancing, and support for local and shared storage. In addition, the new oVirt 3.5 features include the merge of multiple snapshots and the introduction of Optaplanner, that allows to check if a virtual machine can be within a cluster when a user attempts to deploy it on a server that does not have enough resources.
The City of Caceres hosted last week the 25th RedIRIS Technical Conference, involving more than 400 ICT experts from different institutions. As usual, the Technical Conference sessions were preceded by Working Groups, where the objective was to share the experiences of different universities, research centres and other institutions.
The DOCENCIA-NET Working Group dealt with Virtual Ecosystems and two sessions focused on UDS Enterprise software.
Many companies and governments around the world already use Open Source software. This alternative to proprietary software has some obvious advantages from the economic point of view. But, you can get much more out of it. To do this, it is recommended to have a technology partner involved in Open Source developments, having staff with experience in this area and training the employees who will manage the project.
It is also important to carry out our developments without modifying the source code, so that we will always be able to count on the support of the community and we will be able to implement the improvements that are introduced.
For more information, have a look at this article that introduces some interesting tips:
