The UDS Enterprise team analyses in this post the new hyper-converged infrastructures that VMware presented at VMworld 2014, which took place at San Francisco:
With its EVO family, VMware makes a new incursion in the cloud with a solution that scales the resources available for a cloud infrastructure through modules which contain all the resources available (CPU, memory, storage, network…) integrating quickly and efficiently to the management and administration cloud tools, both public and private.
Last week we published a post describing some of UDS Enterprise 1.5 improvements . In this article we explain the remaining new features introduced by the new version of our desktop virtualization connection broker.
Both users and VDI administrators can now set up or disable the root user from the advanced configuration dashboard. In this way, the system can be configured to have root access from the login window.
Our blog’s readers have chosen the new Linux Certification Program, 100% Open Source virtual desktops and UDS Enterprise social media channels as the most interesting posts for the last weeks.
If you dind’t have the chance to read them, find below the link to each article so that you can keep up with the most outstanding news according to our own followers:
They seem similar concepts, but they don’t mean the same. Software-defined networking and network virtualization share some features, such as the objective of improving the agility to direct the right network resources to virtual machines. But their design and architecture are different.
This article outlines the differences and helps to understand the way both technologies work:
UDS Enterprise 1.5 version shows some interesting new features which improve the experience of virtual desktops users and administrators. These include oVirt connector for KVM hypervisor update, that makes the system more robust. Besides, the development team has included support for Microsoft Hyper-V (non clustered) and Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization connectors.
Another innovation introduced in this new edition allows the assignement of transports to access using smartphones and tablets, because the broker is compatible with these devices. Moreover, the administration interface has been completely renewed allowing access to the broker via web from any device anywhere and anytime. All these improvements are achieved thanks to native HTML5 support.
