How to make the most of oVirt 3.5
Online learning through virtual classrooms is becoming increasingly widespread. For companies that wish to join this trend, virtualization with KVM is a good option, because that enables you to deliver a remote high-quality education at a very affordable price. In this article, we explain the hardware and memory requirements to set up an environment based on KVM to offer online courses. Our VDI multiplatform connection broker for Windows and Linux, UDS Enterprise, is fully compatible with KVM.
Considering the current development of hardware, it is not necessary to pay a lot of money for hardware that work properly. You only should look for the most suitable according to quality and price, like Intel NUC.
The improvements in the new UDS Enterprise available version, our team’s tips to ensure a successful adoption of desktop virtualization and the new Red Hat Enterprise Linux version have been our top 3 post for the last two weeks.
As we trust in our follower’s judgement, we are sharing these articles again just in case you didn’t have the chance to read them:
UDS Enterprise 1.5 improvements
A major vulnerability has been discovered that targets bash, the Unix system (including OSX) and Linux commands interpreter. Apparently, this security flaw is also affecting other interpreters, such as ksh, tcsh, zsh and csh. Nevertheless, other shells aren’t being affected.
UDS Enterprise servers aren’t vulnerable to this fail, so the security of the virrual machines which provide UDS Enterprise remains unaltered.
This vulnerability has been registed as CVE-2014-6271 and it allows to execute certain commands due to the wrong process of the environment variables. Besides, it may be exploited remotely.
Red Hat has announced the availability of Red Hat Enterprise Linux’s new version, 5.11. The company reinforces its commitment for security and performance introducing important improvements in these areas.
One of the most outstanding features in this edition is the new OpenSCAP version, with new qualified providers for this standard.
This new platform introduces other interesting features, such as new storage controls, improvements in Red Hat Access Support depuration capacities and in Red Hat Enterprise Linux hosts which operate in VMware ESXi.
